(Get the code!)
When I do "shutdown -r 0" as root boot is executed nicely. Says "*Will now reboot" and reboots.
On the other hand when I do "shutdown 0" as root the last message in standard output is "*Will now halt..." and then comes Mr. Freeze. I can even hear the hardrive shutting down but then it just freezes. "poweroff" (with any option) gives the same result. Executing "poweroff -f" the screen freezes instantly after printing "Powering off".
Therefore I think the problem is in somewhere between Halt / Poweroff and hardware.
At the moment with Lenovo S205 Ideapad and 11.10 the only way to shutdown seems to be is by pressing power button.
