Bug Description
Binary package hint: kdebase
I have just installed Kubuntu 11.04 (download 06-may-2011). Every time I try to Shut Down or Reboot, the system hangs solid (won't react to Ctl-Alt_Del even). On the same machine (HP G72-b20SA) 10.10 showed the same behaviour. 11.04 splash screen hides the log. On 10.10 the final actions are:
init cron main process(1120) killed by TERM signal
init irq_balance main process(1128) killed by ...
init Hy1 main process (1304) killed by ...
Checking for running unattended-upgrades [...] -> rt2800_wait_wtp made ready: Error - WPDMA busy, aborting
Then, in one case, it progressed to:
[....]phy0-
After 5 mins of frozen screen, pressed the on/off switch off for 5 secs. Reboots take long as disc journals have to be rerun.
More details:
sda1,sda2,sda3 Win7 crud;sda4 extended partition; sda5 more Win7; sda6 swap; sda7 /; sda8 /home; /sda9 /archive;
4 GB ram, intel i3 350M cpu . All Linux partitions are
I suspect some h/w issue: weird disc layout due to Win 7 hogging all the primary partitions.
(Debian Squeeze closes down cleanly but has other problems).
I hope that this helps.

I think that Network manager may have something to do with this. I have just tried to close down the eth0 interface by
clicking on the kde taskbar widget; this resulted in an immediate freeze -- needing a power down and reboot. Could my
power down lock ups be caused by trying to get network manager to close down the eth0 interface?
By the way, my Linux data partitions are Reiserfs: sda6 8GB (swap), sda7 32GB /, sda8 70GB /home, sda9 269GB /archive.
