<p>Same result, just hangs on the splash screen. Can't logout, esc.
key does nothing, can't switch to a console. Just have to do a
hard shutdown.<br>

<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>Since I may not make meeting (niece visiting and
Thurs. is her last day) I'm putting my issue out for
comment and hopefully answers. As many of you know I
used to updgrade instead of clean installs and did
that since Ubuntu 6.04. I had also added many apps
from third parties and also modified many, many conf
files to keep things working. I had a meltdown and
lost much of my data but following a partial
recovery, thanks to a certain group member, I
installed a clean version of 18.04 onto a new 1TB
SSD. I have ot tinkered at all with 3rd party
software nor modified any conf files or been a bad
boy in any way!</p>
<p>My issue ids that I cannot shut down my box in
anyway other than a hard shutdown. I also cannot
restart it. I have tried the GUI option as well as
switching to text mode and using "sudo shutdown now"
or "sudo restart now". In those cases I get the
splash screen with the "traveling lights" and Unutu
but it hangs there. The traveling dots hang on the
first dot of the splash screen and nothing happens.
I had hoped that text mode would give give me an
indication of the issues but I can't stay in that
mode for some reason. </p>
<p>Thanks for any help.</p>
<p>Brian</p>
