This happened to me just a few days ago. Yesterday, I reinstalled ubuntu and it worked for a while. Today, however it's started again. The actions that I took during my last login are two numerous to immediately pinpoint which one may have caused it, but the most likely candidate is that right before I tried to shutdown, I had just modified the fstab with the line:
/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
i.e. I had just created a fixed mount point for my cd-rom drive to
better take advantage of wine. I don't know if this has anything to do
with this problem though.

Title:
ubuntu 11.10 : the system doesn't turn off if "sudo halt" is given
Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Since I upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10 the system doesn't turn off at
the end of halt procedure if it's called via commandline (local or
remote shell) . At some point of halt procedure the system freezes and
all I can do is turning off pc via physical power button and halting
it using GUI or via "sudo shutdown -h now" , these two methods work
flawlessly.
I have this problem on both x86_64 and x86. Anyway if I shut down the
pc using ligthdm or unity the system is turned off properly.
Description: Ubuntu 11.10

Linux travelmate 3.0.0-13-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 17 20:18:09 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
