Shutdown is taking a long time. Using journalctl I found :
acpid.service stopping timed out. Killing.
This results in a delay of almost 1.5 minutes
I am having a similar issue after upgrading from OpenSUSE 12.2 to 12.3. That is, when I try to shutdown using the GUI shutdown icons then it takes a VERY LONG time to shutdown. I would say an extra 60 to 90 seconds. Whereas, if I shutdown from the command line using “shutdown now” (or reboot with “shutdown -r now”) then it happens quickly as it did in OpenSUSE 12.2
I have not yet been able to come up with a fix…

What happens if you manually try
systemctl stop acpid.service
? Does it fail to stop as well?
A manual stop works fine.
I have the same problem. Now I was just wondering what this acpid.service file looked like and then I found several symbolic links (among them acpid.service) in sub directories of /etc/systemd/system were pointing to non existent files located in systemd’s old /lib/systemd/system instead of to /usr/lib/systemd/system
I don’t know if this is part of the problem but I just changed all of them and will try this coming week. I will post results here, and if needed file a bug report.
Is that a system which was upgraded from a previous version?
Remove acpid
sudo zypper rm acpid
it is not needed and conflicts on 12.3 with logind (on a fresh 12.3
install it does not exist).

I see this once in a while on 12.3, Tumbleweed, KDE 4.10.3. Was suspecting the Kontact suite but it’s not the case. Duration of the session does not play a role either.
That worked fine . It is better than the band aid I found of putting “systemctl stop acpid.service” in a file in .kde4/shutdown .
