Comment 22 for bug 498607

The problem still exists for me. Reboot works, Shutdown ends the GUI, but the screen with 10.04 and the four dots stay visible forever. I connected to the box from my laptop via ssh and looked for zombies in "top" but couldn't find any. So the system was still running and accessible with ssh. Issuing "shutdown -hP now" worked from the ssh connection, the system did shutdown with that second instruction.

As requested the output from "lspci"
