I'm running elementary Freya 64 bit and using the Nvidia binary driver v340.76.
Yesterday some upgrades were installed, including apparently the kernel version 3.16.0-46-generic
.
Today I rebooted the system and it hanged on Restoring resolver state…
. The only way I could get it to boot was to select the previous kernel (3.16.0-45-generic
) from the advanced options.
I've tried the answer given herehere, basically adding acpi=force
to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
:
sudo vi /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=”quiet splash acpi=force”
sudo update-grub
but it didn't work.
Any ideas how to solve this?
