Happy new year! I experience since Q4.rc2 some problems connected to
power-off or suspends. They are of minor annoyance, but maybe they can
be improved ...
1) after 0-10 succesful suspends (on a HP zbook 14 laptop) the hdd will
no longer power off any more at a new lid-down suspend. After lid-reopen
& login, I can no longer start any qubes (neither startmenu nor
qvm-start in dom0) or execute any command in running qubes (neither
start-menu nor using qvm-run in dom0); if I happen to have a terminal
open in a running qube, commands will be executed as expected.
Additonally sys-whonix connection dies.
=> The isuue requires a reboot to solve.
2) Reboots hang systematically at "Reached target shutdown" and has to
be rebooted via a coldboot.

I've been seeing this too, although sometimes it goes on after half a minute
only to hang at some other point (after loads of messages).

I noticed that if I manually shut down all qubes, INCLUDING, sys-net, before
logging out then this problem is avoided.

Next time you reboot, can you try that and let us know if this isn't just
me?
That may help with debugging.

Cheers!

I’ve seen the same thing.  Perhaps nothing during shutdown is calling qvm-shutdown on the qubes.

yes Like tom I just shut down all the vms I manually created, before shutting down system. There is a script made by members of the community somewhere on the forums to shut them all down with one command. I never have that many vms open so I don't bother.

Although I wonder if its any diff shutting down vms in 4.0?
