I use a ThinkPad R61 with a NVIDIA Corporation G86M [Quadro NVS 140M] (rev a1). On my laptop I have installed Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 via an Upgrade from Saucy. I cannot shutdown my laptop from within a gnome- session. When I choose Shutdown or Reboot from the Gnome Menu, the Gnome- Desktop is obviously terminated properly, but the laptop don't power off. The display gets dark but the leds and the system fan stay on. The display backlight is on, too. In this state I'm unable to get via Ctrl+Alt+F1 in a console or something like that. I could only power off the laptop by pressing the power button for some seconds. The same happens when I open a gnome-terminal and type "sudo shutdown -h now" or "sudo reboot NOW" there. This happens while using the nvidia drivers 304.117 or 331.38. I've tested all of the following packages. rc nvidia-304 304.117-0ubuntu1 amd64 NVIDIA legacy binary driver - version 304.117 ii nvidia-331 331.38-0ubuntu7 amd64 NVIDIA binary driver - version 331.38 rc nvidia-331-updates 331.38-0ubuntu7 amd64 NVIDIA binary driver - version 331.38 I use GNOME Shell 3.10.4 and kernel 3.13.0-24-generic. Does this happen to anybody else?
