Jergen, you may well be right. When I first posted the description of bug #71004 fitted my experience.
Now I have installed the Hardy beta. It's only been in for 24 hours but the results so far are not encouraging, so perhaps there is some kind of hardware fault (I don't think so as the graphics run perfectly except at shutdown), or some other software glitch to do with shutting X down. Either way it seems likely that usplash is not involved. -- [kubuntu edgy and feisty] usplash_down causes shutdown to hang https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71004 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
