Hi all, sometimes I face a strange problem on shutdown: it simply hangs until I press Ctrl-Alt-Del several times (the required number of times is random). At screen I see that plymouth fails and log contains: Oct 07 22:41:57 orodruin.lotr xdm[28730]: Shutting down service lightdm..done Oct 07 22:41:57 orodruin.lotr vboxdrv[28808]: Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules..done Oct 07 22:41:58 orodruin.lotr network-remotefs[28789]: Shutting down (remotefs) network interfaces: Oct 07 22:41:58 orodruin.lotr network-remotefs[28789]: Shutting down service (remotefs) network . . . . . . . . ...done Oct 07 22:41:59 orodruin.lotr network[29301]: Shutting down (localfs) network interfaces: Oct 07 22:41:59 orodruin.lotr network[29301]: eth0 device: Atheros Communications Inc.

Oct 07 22:43:27 orodruin.lotr systemd-journal[282]: Journal stopped (the line at 22:42:03 is as reported by systemd-journal, it is not a copy&paste problem) The first message at 22:42:41 should correspond to my first Ctrl-Alt-Del as the splash was not animated, so I pressed Esc to see the messages, the shutdown sequence was hanged and then I started to press Ctrl-Alt-Del repeatedly (with shorter and shorter interval) to force the shutdown. On a regular shutdown, I obtain: Oct 06 23:24:46 orodruin.lotr network[31080]: ..done wlan0 device: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1000 Oct 06 23:24:46 orodruin.lotr ifdown[31558]: wlan0 device: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1000 Oct 06 23:24:46 orodruin.lotr dhcpcd[31602]: wlan0: dhcpcd not running Oct 06 23:24:46 orodruin.lotr dhcpcd[31602]: wlan0: exiting Oct 06 23:24:48 orodruin.lotr network[31080]: ..doneShutting down service (localfs) network . . . . . . . . ...done Oct 06 23:24:49 orodruin.lotr systemd[1]: Shutting down. Oct 06 23:24:49 orodruin.lotr systemd-journal[276]: Journal stopped So, since this is clearly a subject for a bug report, the question is: against which component? Best, Andrea PS: nothing has changed at system level between the two shutdowns since no package has been installed/removed/updated. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
