For some machines this is a problem is bootspash is enabled. Turn it off and see if that helps. |

Boot splash is disabled on my installation as well. |

I also have bootsplash disabled on one of my machines and enabled on another and both have this problem. This is a major pain for me as I shut down my machines most nights remotely and thus this doesn't work. |

Once or twice I have seen this when NFS was being used and a program had a lock on a file during shutdown. By any chance are the offending machines remote frontends or using NFS? |

Post subject: | Re: R8 can't reboot or shutdown |
jams, No not using any NFS I have seen another message that occurs during shutdown. Will try and capture it and post. It's something complaining that it can't write to a read only file. ..... |

I had NFS enabled but disabled it, and samba, with no help for this problem. This happens on both my SBE/FE and my MBE/FE. I think the message tscholl is referring is like mine. Here's a screenshot: https://app.box.com/s/3l2z8w5ylzi0wc2h5dg0/1/2250372689/19388549369/1 |

stevenj, Yes that is the message that I was referring to. I get the same thing. |

I run a number of Mythboxes, all IBMs ... Some models shut down properly, all the 9229s hang and have to be shutdown with the power button. So a model-specific problem. |

Well I stumbled across something the other day. I have been running a WinTV-PVR-USB2 for several years and was in the process of changing channel line up. Long story but in the process of working on this I had unplugged the USB cable from the tuner, and did a shutdown -r and guess what! It shutdown completely and then rebooted without a problem. If I don't unplug the cable it still hangs, unplug the device and shutdown works! So at least I now know that it is a device that's that's creating my hang on shutdown.Don't know how to fix, so open to suggestions. |

Well, I have no answers, but I am plagued with the same problem with my system. I cannot shutdown the system via software - I have an identical console log as @stevenj (i.e. the shutdown hangs after "runit: system reboot"). I was hoping to get ACPI shutdown and MythWelcome working, but this shutdown bug is a show-stopper! I tried mythbuntu on this hardware previously, and did not have the problem with that distro installed - I could shutdown just fine with it. Mythbuntu did not setup my Hauppauge PVR250 remote, though. I see many of you mention that you have a PVR250 or a Hauppauge remote of some sort, so that seems the likely culprit. Now that I have LinHES R8.1.1 installed (and the Hauppauge grey remote setup), I am seeing the hang in the shutdown. Any news - has anyone figured out how to get shutdown to work with the remote configured? |

No solution yet for me. Hate this issue. I shut down my machines every night and have to manually go hold the power button to do so. If anyone can work on the issue and needs help testing/troubleshooting, I'm willing. |

I had the same issue. Physically removing the pvr-250 from my system solved the problem. I was only using it for the ir receiver so it wasn't a big loss for me. I am using a hauppauge remote profile with a generic MCE ir receiver now with no issues. I also found that changing the remote type on the remote selection screen requires a reboot on my system more often than not to take properly. Hope that helps. |

For those having the shutdown issue can you see if the task it is hanging on is consistent? Before shutdown: Code: ps aux > psList Then when you shutdown see if you can find that pid in the list and post what process it is.

@brfransen, if I can get the children off the Myth box tonight, I will try to get you some feedback. I appreciate your helpfulness to all of us users of LinHES. You are a dedicated supporter! I hope we can find the root cause of this shutdown issue. BTW, In addition to using the PVR250's remote control, I also use it to watch/record from my VCR. We still have a lot of old analog VHS tapes. That is the holdout for me pulling out the card and going with a new remote... |
