2009-12-23 03:34:49 Eugene description Binary package hint: upstart I have 9.10 (64bit) installed on a new Lenovo Thinkpad SL500. When I choose shutdown or reboot from the GUI it appears to shut most things down, like the GUI, but doesn't switch off the power or reboot. I get left with a blinking cursor on the console. If I stop gdm and run halt from the command line I get this: $ halt The system is going down for halt NOW! * Using Makefile-style concurrent boot in runlevel 0 init: rsyslog-kmsg main process (858) killed by TERM signal init: hal main process (945) teminated with status 1 init: avahi-daemon main process (943) terminated with status 255 modem-manager: Caught signal 15, shutting down... init: Disconnected from system bus and then it just sits there until I press and hold the power button. If I run "halt -f -p" then it doesn't do the normal shutdown process but it does switch off the power. I've tried putting an explicit "halt -f -p" at the start of /etc/init.d/halt but that doesn't help. /etc/default/halt contains the line "HALT=poweroff". Reboot has the same problem as shutdown, and again "reboot -f" does reboot but once again doesn't run the shutdown scripts.
