Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream stable kernel?
Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the
latest v3.11 stable kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Title:
  13.10 shutdown on Acer 3050 laptop doesn't work

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After doing an update to Ubuntu 13.04, the laptop wwould go thru the
  motions of shutting down but would NOT complete the shutdown.  The
  drive light continues to flicker and the 2 status lights on the front
  of the laptop remain lit.  I tried to correct this issue by installing
  Ubuntu 13.10 from a DVD over the existing Ubuntu 13.04.  This was
  before I saw all the problems showing up with the release.  It
  installed but had some options that had to be corrected.  The machine
  still will not after getting several updates since.  This machine is
  set up as a dual-boot with Windows Vista.  The Windows side shutsdown
  without any issues.  This shutdown  problem affects the lptop and not
  my Zotac desktop machine.  It appears to be a problem in the shutdown
  of laptops and not desktop machines.

  The only way I can shut it down or reboot the machine is to HARD
  Shutdown the machine and then press the POWER button to start it back
  up.
