Hardy has randomly locked up on shutdown on my Dell Inspiron 500m since it first came out. I've tried clean installs and several tips from similar shutdown related bugs/fixes. This bug is also affects log-out and other related processes.
While I have not been able to recreate the problem when I wanted to, I do know immediately when it happens since the screen immediately goes black (no progress bar).
If I do not realize that the shutdown is incomplete, I often realize it several hours later when the fan is on full and the case is hot. There is no time that the keyboard is useful once the blank screen is present (no Ctrl-Alt-Backspace or any other key sequence has worked including REISUB).
The closest bug to this I've found is Bug 231533, and I've posted some details there as well but it hasn't drawn any flies and is a couple months old. I've searched through several bugs that sounded similar, and tried the fixes presented, but have not found one that works. |
