Problems with the shutdown and restart. Kali rolling 2016.1

[Lana]

Hi guys.
Kali rolling 2016.1 system when you turn off / reboot freezes and does not respond. Command console "poweroff" does not help. Laptop freezes all. The notebook is switched off only after the button. Acer V3-551G. BIOS version 1.07
Who can help?

Try different reboot kernel parameters (bios, pci, acpi)
You can edit /etc/default/grub and replace "quiet" with "reboot=bios quiet".
Afterwards run update-grub.

The valid options can be found in the reboot.c file.
The latest one is here:

I recommend to look at the file for your kernel version.

After each reboot you can check what was used by looking in the /proc/cmdline file.

Hi,

I had the same problem. But after some updates it seems that the problem is gone for me. Try apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y

How to do it? write a plan (if you can)

I have the same problem is there a solution?
Im new to linux and im using kali linux via live usb And also is there a way to save a file permanently. Whenever i reboot(had to shutdown by holding power button) the file also deleted

It did not help.

Try this, open /etc/default/grub
Then look for this line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet" and change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="reboot=bios quiet". save and exit then update-grub2.


Then try and reboot. If that doesnt work try changing =bios with either =pci or =acpi. update-grub2 and check again.

I have the exact same problem, my restart and shutdown broke once upgraded to kali rolling (v4.4.0)

Edit: None of the mentioned parameters worked.
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documenta...parameters.txt

Tried:

reboot=b
reboot=a
reboot=e
reboot=p
reboot=f
reboot=t
reboot=k

I wont keep shutting down my laptop by holding down the power button, seriously, an OS without a way to reboot or shutdown ? #LOL.
If you have the same laptop as me (asus k55dr A8), consider if you wanna have an OS with no way to reboot or shutdown before installing kali or simply wait for a newer upgraded version.

I have the same problem my pc HP-G62a20SP.
I found that going into recovery mode text mode as root write the command "init 0" or "systemctl poweroff" PC turns off

In graphic mode in the terminal commands do not work
I tried to kill the procesos with the command "kill -9 -1" the PC seems to hang but appears Feedback ... Long shutdown (~ 2min): "The job is running stop for Session 1 of user ..."
changed lines "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT =" quiet "quiet to" reboot = bios quiet "did not work.

I am new to linux, my English is not good I ask for help if someone has an idea of what I can do.

This is what helped for me to fix my shutdown and restart:

Type in terminal:

1. sudo -i (to get a root shell, sudo gedit is not recommended)
2. gedit /etc/default/grub
3. Find the line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
4. Change this to: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi=force"
5. Save the file and close the file.
6. Finally, in terminal: update-grub
7. exit (to end the root shell)

Hope this help you all

I am not sure which one solve my case (dell inspiron)

1. Hi,
   
   I had the same problem. But after some updates it seems that the problem is gone for me. Try apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y

2. Try this, open /etc/default/grub

Save the file on your hdd. to shutdown try using toolbar, not in terminal.
