[Bug 1552985] Re: [Dell Inspiron 14 3000 Series] System hangs on poweroff

 

I have seen indications that it makes a difference which tool or method
was used to create the USB boot drive. So please tell us which tool was
used when this bug appeared, as if you get different results when trying
to shut down, when the USB drive was created with different tools or
methods.

Title:
  [Dell Inspiron 14 3000 Series] System hangs on poweroff

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Xubuntu 14.04.4 LTS
  Linux 3.13.0-79-generic #123-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 19 14:27:58 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  When shutting down the system, it gets stuck on the Xubuntu splash
  screen. I have to press the power button for a while to have it shut
  down.

  This is a dual boot system: Windows 10 and Xubuntu 14.04. I updated BIOS version to A10 a couple of days ago. It hanged when trying to shut down from both Windows and Xubuntu.
  After installing the firmware update from http://www.dell.com/support/article/mx/es/mxbsdt1/SLN300281/EN, the computer shuts down correctly from Windows, but still gets stuck when trying to shut down from Xubuntu, no matter if using the "Shutdown" button or running "shutdown -h now" or "poweroff" from a terminal.

  I found a similar bug here:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1341925?comments=all,
  but the solution mentioned there did not work for me, also, I don't
  have any problems when rebooting the computer, just when trying to
  shut down.
