Description diego w 2012-03-07 20:46:30 CET

Description of problem:
with systemd the shutdown (from KDM after landing there due to #4605) will not always succeed.

the system stopps on virtual terminal 1 with message starting dracut or similar
switching to VT2 permits logging in, a halt command freezes the system with a "bright black" screen.


this only happens intermittently and i couldnt find a way to trigger it yet.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
systemd-43-2.mga2.src.rpm

How reproducible:
intermittent

Steps to Reproduce:
1. shutdown pc from kde
2. shutdown pc from kdm
3. shutdown will not succeed

maybe it's a duplicate of bug 4729 or from other one but I don't found them :/

its not a pure halt instead of a poweroff

the system still responds to several things.
I can't really tell you to what it responds, but some keypress have some effect, unfortunately not the desired one.

it is quite a rare phenomenon, sometimes it happens on reboot, sometimes on shutdown. 

unfortunately it mostly happens when my wife is using my laptop...

i will try to further confirm.
