Hey,

I have just found a workaround by chance: purging xserver-xorg-video-
nouveau (without replacing it by a Nvidia driver) from the system
removes the freezing issue during shutdown!

That's very strange because the driver is loaded with initrd during the
boot, meaning rebooting after the removal does not prevent X Server from
using the nouveau driver... without the shutdown issue that was directly
caused by the same driver.

Maybe someone can shed light on this mystery.

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I know someone who "solved" this issue by installing a Nvidia driver.
  Do you test your Nouveau driver on MSI computers and computers with Nvidia graphics card before rolling out new releases?
  This is not the first time I'm experiencing a significant flaw with this driver.
