Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit same behaviour


Problem (unsolved)

At shutdown or restart the computer may or may not hang.

  • doing a shutdown from the desktop will logout instead most of the times (9 out of 10) and show the login screen
  • shutting down does not complete, sometimes a trace shows up that mentions FGLRX, it does not timeout, it keeps hanging indefinitely

Suggestions and reports:
