I tried with 4.5.7, nothing changes with WiFi on or off However, back to the original problem, while playing with WiFi, I discovered that 4.5.7 was now freezing during shutdown (reboot okay). So, I then tried removing "acpi=off noapic" again, and 4.5.7 was now able to reboot and shutdown. But as before, any later kernel now hangs during both reboot and shutdown.
So, in summary: - with "acpi=off noapic", all kernels can reboot but hang during shutdown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776616 Title: Ubuntu 18.04 getting stuck at "Starting Reboot" and "Starting Power- Off" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1776616/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
