Interesting Robb. I have two installations of Intrepid on my laptop (which as I said has no Intel hardware, so should not be affected by any bios or driver bug suggested by Daniel Chen above). The one which I upgraded from Hardy does not show this fault, but the one which I installed from the CD does and was fixed by altering /etc/hosts to include localhost under ip6.
I compared the hosts files of the two installations however and found that the upgraded one which did not show the fault (Intrepid 1) also did not have the reference to localhost in the ip6 area. It did however have more hosts listed under the local domain IP at the top than the CD installation which did show the fault (Intrepid 2). Intrepid 1 /etc/hosts (this installation does NOT show this bug and shuts down normally) 127.0.0.1 refd-lt localhost.localdomain localhost 127.0.1.1 fred-lt # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts Intrepid 2 (this fresh installation from CD DOES show the bug and hung during shutdown) Please note that the localhost in the second section was added to fix this bug. 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 dov # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02:: ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts -- MASTER storing ALSA mixer element values during shutdown hangs nondeterministically if non-loopback network interfaces are still up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/274995 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
