The halt command never works with ubuntu and its derivatives. While I was using ubuntu and typed sudo halt, it would freeze over the halt framebuffer. I could only shut it down by hard reset when that happened. But in any other distro I have tried, halt works as intended...

I just used to do sudo halt, and it didn` t work (anyway, I don` t mind, as I am not using ubuntu anymore...)

I have only rarely had problems with shutdown in the 'buntus...
But as to the OP, I'm certain this is a hardware issue. |
I have neither had problems. Just halt doesnt work...

Ubuntu and Mint are weird. They even disable root. You can't just do su Root password You have to do "sudo su" instead without the quotes. & halt still doesn't work. ??? I wonder what was going through their mind. M$ Vista disables the administrator account in a similar fashion. |
