Same here, though I never had the same problem with 6.06

Aftter chosing shutdown, the Ubuntu animation is shown until the orange bar goes completely blank/black. After that the screen freezes and power is not switched off.

Upgraded to edgy from Dapper on VAIO PCG-6H2M laptop.

I recently met with bug on an old pentium 2 machine. Can't give anything specific because I don't have that computer anymore.

After I changed my power supply, mainboard and RAMs the problem has been solved. So, it is either related with power supply, mainboard or RAMs, I don't know which one.

I'm pretty sure it's related to the mainboard. My old comp had a brand new power supply. It wasn't high-end quality though..

We are sorry that we didn't get to your bug report earlier, but the 18 month support period for Edgy Eft, 6.10, has reached it's end of life and we are marking the linux-source-2.6.17 task as Won't fix. However, please note that I am opening a linux task for the actively developed kernel. It would be helpful if you could test your bug with the recently released version of Ubuntu - Hardy Heron. You should be able to test this bug with a Live CD which you can get from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
