Hi, I've been having the same issue in a dell precision M4300. It started in some point of the kernel 3.1.x release. Since then from time to time the system does not shutdown unless using the power button to force a power off. Any ideas? I can provide more info if I'm instructed about what would be interesting to provide. The computer has arch 32bits for more than 2 years.
