PC not capable to shutdown or reboot, strange behavior

Hello,

I am facing the issue that the PC not capable to shutdown or reboot; In order to debug that, htop tells me the running processes but all seems normal, I killed few but still cold reset is needed.

There is certainly a problem somewhere. the best would be to know which process are weirdly hanging. It could make this testing debian bit better to know which package has these issues.

What are you actually doing when you attempt to shutdown? Running "halt"?

Can you halt the machine by running

Code:

telinit 0

?
