[Bug 875959] [NEW] network-manager preventing shutdown

 

Public bug reported:

Network-Manager appears to be preventing shutdown on some machines, not
sure what the common property is between the people mentioning the
shutdown error here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11353570
but I am thinking it is down to Network-Manager, which is preventing the
last stage of the shutdown, we get to the Plymouth screen and the
harddisk stops, but the PC doesn't turn off and my wireless light stays
on.

I managed to shutdown by killing Network Manager after seeing the error
Killing All Remaining Processes [Fail] during shutdown, hence me
thinking it is an issue with Network-Manager.

Essentially, if you kill Network Manager via sudo service network-
manager stop first you can shutdown, without doing that, you can't
shutdown.
