OK, managed to do this...
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-3.19

Though I do not think it was the kernel that fixed it.  I ended up with
problems getting the PC to boot and ended up reviewing the GRUB
commands.  I found "acpi=off" and "nomodeset" multiple times...  I
removed all references to these and it started to work, boot and
shutdown.

Hope this ius useful to someone/future users.  Sorry for the delay
getting back

Happy new year

Title:
  Can not Shut Down

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have an odd problem here with my Ubuntu installation.  I have logged
  on the Forum, but getting no joy and noticed in the terminal "halt
  --help" a request to contact yourselves for bugs.

  I can not shut down my PC. I have tried the normal shutdown and
  restart keys. I have tried using a terminal and typing

  sudo shutdown now -h

  or

  sudo shutdown now -r

  (for reboot), plus "halt", "poweroff" and "reboot", but none work. It
  starts to shut down. Get a load of text on the screen saying it is
  shutting down and then it stops. I have to press the "hard" reset
  button on the front of the PC and then turn it off at the back before
  it reboots.

  Any ideas, please?
  Any cmd outputs required, please advise.

  It is fully up to date on software updates and running 14.10
