I'm using HP Probook 650, Running ubuntu 18.10 , I noticed that when i have a usb flashdrive or AC power connected the Laptop turns off without a problem.

Without a USB flash or a power plug, the laptop does not turn off.

Any ideas as to how to resolve this? Thanks

  • Are you saying that if you have no USB drive connected or you are on battery power that a shutdown gesture eventually results in a reboot? Make it clear with an [edit] exactly what you are doing and what happens. Be as specific as you can. –  Jan 16 '19 at 22:03
  • Hw are you turning it off? Check your power settings. There are different options for "on battery" and "on AC" and for powerbutton and lid closing actions. Might be something there. – Stephen Boston Jan 17 '19 at 00:11
  • To power it off I must have my flashdrive plugged in or power cable. Without that I have to hold the power button force shutdown. But using ubuntu shutdown button the laptop restarts just after 2 seconds – Joseph Jan 19 '19 at 14:17
  • You should provide us with more information about the error.

    Please, after restarting, execute the command:

    journalctl -b

    Then edit your post and paste the result.

  • This will show you all of the journal entries that have been collected since the most recent reboot. – Carlos Dagorret Jan 19 '19 at 14:21
  • You may want to check the "Wake on LAN" setting in your BIOS menu. – unutbu Jan 19 '19 at 14:50
  • Did you check on kernel boot logs? journalctl -b -k -p4 | grep -i "acpi\|power" – Pablo Bianchi Jan 21 '19 at 04:52

I managed to fix the issue by disabling USB 3.0 in bios settings.
