I have ubuntu 11.10 64bit, everything worked fine but after i uninstalled the airtime dj app i can't restart or shutdown my pc !! The only way to reach at the screen showing that system is going to shutdown is via terminal but it stucks and never shuts down !
I can't even restart it !
I can suspend my pc fine but can't shutdown or restart it.
My workstation at work is running 11.10 (lightdm). Shutting down or restarting has always worked up till last week.
My workstation is generally left on through the week and shutdown at weekends.
When I click either Restart or Shutdown, it just logs me out.
Is there any logs I can see that will point to errors?
What might cause this? I haven't got auto login checked (as one answer suggested).
Hello everyone,
When I shut down in the Xfce desktop, I require a root password to shutdown and restart the computer.
Here are two pictures to help with the situation. The first one is the logout prompt.
I have 11.3 Gnome installed on a Dell Optiplex380, and I can fully shutdown, but the system hangs when I try to Restart. The Geeko logo is there and the white bar retracts, once it hits all gray it stays there until I force a hard-shutdown holding the computer power-button.
What steps can I take to fix this or start troubleshooting?
Thank you!

My Compaq Presario 2100 will not shutdown, restart, suspend, or hibernate correctly. When I attempt a shutdown or restart, it hangs with a message to the effect of Shutting Down Now, but it never powers off.
I would like to be able to log these messages and present them on this web site for help, but I know of no way to log shutdown messages.
I don't know what i did or what happened?
but my ubuntu logs off on clicking shutdown...
running the shutdown or reboot command too doesn't shutdown....
how can i find the log?
all i know is there is a message saying ....
Power_table_CMD wait for 500 sec
and something similar
it gets stuck on Ubuntu Plymouth...
I have to long press the power button on my Laptop to shut it off
I'm not sure whether this is a bug (in which case I'll submit a report) or I'm doing something silly!
Is there a difference, in terms of memory clearance, between a restart vs. a shutdown and re-boot up?
