Title:
  After the command [sudo][halt] PC is still open.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I installed Ubuntu 11.10 for the first time in Jan-2012. Since the first moment was this problem, every time I used the command:
  	sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo halt
  The PC does not turn off, instead reaches the Ubuntu logo with the five dots underneath and stays in that state in perpetual.
  I tried the simple command:
  	sudo halt
  but still the same problem.
  This problem is in both terminal window and the virtual console.
  One curious fact is that this problem was with the command:
  	sudo reboot
  too in the beginning but not anymore.
