And curiously still, I have a Samsung N130 running 11,10 which recently, when shut down, exhibits similar behaviour. It goes to the text screen, where it says it is stopping services etc., but then hangs....if I haven't noticed, the battery eventually runs out. But I can force it to shut down by holding the power button. Maybe there is some funny bug in the shut down procedure? -- Thanks and regards, Jon Reynolds (j0nr) ---------------------------- http://www.jcrdevelopments.com -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
