Shutdown intermittently hangs

English Install/Boot/Login
1

Since installing TW, it has only shut down a few times with
sudo shutdown -h now and goes to terminal login page. Using the Gnome GUI poweroff or the terminal sudo poweroff it goes to the shutdown splash page and then goes to terminal with a standard looking login screen, but after entering the username it hangs.
Why is it asking for a login when I am using sudo to shut down?
Interestingly, it seems to happen after I have been using the PC for many hours, but if I try to shutdown after a few minutes, it shuts down.

I see another post similar to this from 2023, but it remained unresolved and was closed.

Thanks

@distro-nix Hi, on GNOME I normally use the desktop menu item to poweroff/reboot. If from the command line then it’s systemctl poweroff I don’t use sudo either…

Same terminal login screen. :slightly_frowning_face:

Any more suggestions?

@distro-nix do you have another system you could ssh into with? You need to watch the journal and see what it’s doing/not doing…

Or after a reboot, journalctl -b -1 -r to see in reverse order…

Strangely enough it shut down using the Gnome GUI, just when I’m starting to hunt down the culprit :rofl: but I wouldn’t call it a solution until we know why it is happening.
Here is the paste openSUSE Paste
