When I try to shut down my newly installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my Thinkpad T440p, it get stuck at the screen with the ubuntu logo and lighted dots. I saw there were other people that experienced this problem, but did not see answer that worked. I have tried many of the suggested possible answers with no success. Shutdown -h now does not work either.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Other suggestions?

Thanks.

I can't imagine why sudo shutdown -h now wouldn't work? Probably not the answer you are looking for, but might give it a try.

I had a similar problem with fujitsu simens. I used the kernel 3.11.10-03111015-generic and the problem is solved.
