Re: Problem to locate bug

[sj126@uranus.uni-freiburg.de]

Hi,
I tried to shut down the pc with ctrl + alt + 1 -> [login] -> sudo poweroff -> no reaction.
I had some music file playing. A snippet (< 1 s) was repeated roughly between 5 and 10 times before I didn't hear anything further on.
Ctrl + SysRq + k normally reboot immediately. In my case, no reaction.
I'm changing my terminal emulator for now…

Kind regards,
sj126
