Same problem also appeared after update on friday. Also hitting restart takes me to the splash screen but pc then hangs.
'sudo shutdown -h now' will shut the machine down. One thread (/ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=175384) said to install gnome power manager. But synaptic tells me it was unable to find this. So I havent been able to test this.
