Sits where? How are you choosing power off, is this a menu option or a command you are running?
Can you run "dpkg-query -W upstart upstart-compat-sysv sysv-rc initscripts" for me. Before powering off, can you run "runlevel" and provide the output of that for me. ** Changed in: upstart (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Scott James Remnant Status: Unconfirmed => Needs Info -- upstart fails to power off my system https://launchpad.net/bugs/59134 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
