Title:
  Computer does not power off

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have an Acer Aspire laptop, I have just installed Ubuntu 15.04 and removed Windows 10. The problem I have is that after I select shutdown the computer goes through the shutdown procedure and screen goes blank with only the Small Ubuntu icon showing. This is as far as it goes. The computer is still switched on.
  I have tried both shutdown and the re-start options but with no success. I re-installed Ubuntu 15.04 using the option to save my files but this made no difference and again failed to power off machine
  I then tried a full re-install of Ubuntu but the problem persists. I have tried to use the terminal window using the command "shutdown -h now" again computer shut down but did not power off the computer. I have also tried "shutdown -r now" and "shutdown -P now" all with no success. I would be obliged for any advice or solutions
  John
