Ubuntu 11.10 will not shut down or restart
Asked by
wordsmyth
I've posted this before, but found no solution. Is NO ONE out there having the same problem? Ubuntu will not shut down or restart from the drop down menu - though hibernation and standby do respond - nor will it do so if click on the relevant icons in Applications. One respondent suggested I try typing a sudo command in the terminal, and that DID work. But this is a cumbersome and unacceptable way to have to restart or shut down a machine. I'm wondering if a reinstallation would solve the problem, but what a heap of work THAT entails. So please, can someone help me solve this frustrating issue?
