So I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 and it won't shut down after updating, I have to manually shut it down by holding the power key, it happens when I either try to restart it or shut it down. Anyone got any idea on how to fix it?

until you find a permanent solution you may be able to use Sudo telinit 0 or sudo halt to shutdown you system – Aravinda Apr 05 '15 at 16:31

How about trying to shutdown with the shutdown command from a terminal?
- Open a terminal CTRL+ALT+T
- Type
sudo shutdown -h now
and hit Enter - This should now shut down the computer/laptop
- If it does not, then it should output something on the terminal window
- Do a search on the error on AskUbuntu
Hope this helps :-)
