Has anyone yet found the cause? I'm having a hard time figuring out how this problem is only of Medium importance. Maybe it hasn't been reported enough, and if there is another bug report on this issue, I cannot find it.
I am using the latest daily build live-cd, and every time I have to put in my user password, be it to install a piece of software in Muon Package Manager, or open a folder as root, there is a very good chance I will not be able to shut down. My guess is that this is the only common factor preceding a hang on shutdown. Just as Dave Gilbert wrote: "I select shutdown, the screen greys out a bit - but all the apps are still running and it doesn't get any further; I can still type in a konsole and do a sudo shutdown -h now." In my opinion, this is a huge problem for ordinary users. I was able to reproduce this on a laptop, a Toshiba Satellite L305-S5937, with and without Plymouth enabled, so the problem still occurs even when there is no shutdown splash screen or animated progress bar. I hope this is addressed before release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/805906 Title: using virtual box system kubuntu desktop environment won't shutdown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/805906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
