Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
I just upgraded 6 machines in the office to 9.10 from 9.04. Every single one failed to reboot immediately after the upgrade. I selected 'Restart' when prompted by update manager, but nothing happened. I then tried selecting 'restart' from the FUSA applet, which did start a reboot, however at that point one of two things happened. Either it got stuck on the console with nothing but a cursor on the top left of the screen, or it restarted gdm. In either instance the mouse/keyboard wasn't working at that point. I had to hard powercycle each machine to get it to boot.

Thanks for the bugreport.
I can reproduce this now. It appears that upstart does refuses the connection when reboot tries to ask for reboot.
From the strace log:
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path=@" /com/ubuntu/ upstart" }, 22) = -1 ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)
I attach the full log.
