Hi Leszek - is this similar to what you were/are getting ?

My Inspiron 9300 (using ipw2200 and fresh install of 8.04) was hanging at shutdown with almost identical Network Manager error messages to the original bug report. After the Network Manager errors I was getting a long delay, followed by some CIFS error messages, before it hung for good.

I uninstalled Network Manager, which just left me with CIFS error messages.

I found a hal startup Bug #44874, caused by CIFS shares. Changing my cifs shares in fstab to 'noauto' allowed it to shutdown normally - but it still hung if they had been mounted.

My current work-around is to umount all the shares before shutting down. Not ideal, but at least it works.
