OK, who's been fooling around with something so that since some updates done yesterday (my time, Australian Eastern Daylight Time) oS 12.1 [32-bit] will not shutdown the way it has been doing for....for....for ever? :-(
Right-click on Desktop, select Leave>Shutdown the Computer - and the system hangs :-( . No mouse, no keyboard.....just the green screen with the gecko sitting there in the bottom-right corner staring at me.....
Even using ALT-CTRL-F3, logging in as root and issuing the 'halt' command results in.....nothing :-( . Black screen, the computer keeps running...The only way to stop it is to physically power-off.
Surely I am not the only one suddenly suffering this hassle?
Not having any hassle here. Of course you've checked to see what packages were updated so maybe you'd have some clue as to what it could have been? FWIW, the last time (long time ago) I had a system that wouldn't shut down it was due to a start-up script that hadn't completed. I didn't notice it since I wasn't using the offending package. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
