I think comment #121 workaround will only work if you are using GDM, this bug affects KDE and other desktop environment users as well.
Comment #120 states I *think* that this bug is only apparent now if : a) You're mounting remote NFS/CIFS shares by specifying them in /etc/fstab AND b) You're using WIFI to connect to said shares and you forget to disconnect/unmount the shares before shutting down. But I should add an option - which is how the bug is apparent to me * You're mounting CIFS shares using mount.cifs, using WIFI to connect with the shares and the shares are not being unmounted before shutdown. In that case I get the dreaded wait before shutdown and a screenful of nice coloured vertical lines. Yep, nearly two years on this one. Maybe Ubuntu should bake a cake and have a party on the 4th of April. -- Network is brought down before network filesystems are unmounted (CIFS timeout at shutdown) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/211631 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
