As you will see, there is a long delay (90 seconds or so) while shutting down. If anyone can throw light on this I should be very grateful. This is the re-boot timeline on my Thinkpad T510: f=>Leave=>Restart command given and confirmed 19s just cursor on screen f icon appears and remains on screen 114s Thinkpad icon appears 14s automatic choice of kernel bulb appears and slowly fills 25s login screen - after logging in 5s K icon appears and horizontal bar fills 30s panel appears It will be seen that there is a long delay (almost 2 minutes) while shutting down. I see from "journalctl -b-1" that the delay occurs here ------------------------------ Jul 23 14:11:38 william.gayleard.com NetworkManager[908]: <info> [1469275898.3807] device (wlp3s0): supplicant interface state: completed -> disconnected Jul 23 14:11:41 william.gayleard.com wpa_supplicant[1061]: wlp3s0: Reject scan trigger since one is already pending Jul 23 14:13:02 william.gayleard.com NetworkManager[908]: <info> [1469275982.5130] connectivity: check for uri 'http://fedoraproject.org/static/hotspot.txt' failed wit Jul 23 14:13:05 william.gayleard.com systemd[1]: session-1.scope: Stopping timed out.
