Hey Guys,
I've browsed through loads of forum posts (on Kali, Ubuntu and Debian) It seems this issue is spread across multiple linux distros not just Kali.
I'm using Kali 2016.1 Rolling x64 on a HP Envy m6 (8GB Ram, 300GB HDD, AMD A10-5750M APU with Radeon HD Graphics)
Each time I press the GUI restart or power off buttons whilst logged in, it just hangs, the mouse disappears, applications are left open (tried closing them first too) and all that is left to do is hold the power switch and force it off (not good) There is a work around I am using the in mean time, which is to LOG off then power off. This works but sometimes I forget to do this and then facepalm myself lol
Rather than posting onto other peoples threads I've decided to make my own as my machine does not have an nVidea graphics card (whereas most other people's do by the looks of it)
I have tried with no luck:
Run these separately: Apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, apt-get dist-upgrade
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet" to "reboot=bios quiet" in grub and 10linux file (followed by "update-grub")
Different reboot kernel parameters (bios, pci, acpi)
"Halt -p" from terminal
"Shutdown -h 0" from terminal
Added nomodset in grub
Added "blacklist snd-hda-intel" to modprobe.d/intel-microcode-blacklist.conf
Added "blacklist snd_hda_codec_hdmi" to modprobe.d/intel-microcode-blacklist.conf
Added "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" to a new file modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
Added "blacklist nouveau" to modprobe.d/nouveau-blacklist.conf
Run "apt-get install libcuda1 libnvidia-ml1 --no-install-recommends -y" after Blacklist nouveau
Like I mentioned, It's an AMD graphics card so I've not tried any fixes that change nVidea drivers (bit pointless)
I'm only a beginner and I'm getting a little fed up with it, so this is my disheartened plea for help. HEEEELP PLEASE OH GREAT KALI WIZARDS.
OR, can anyone point me to a previous Kali Distro I can download? I've given up searching the internet.
