      @dafyre You mean like a downgrade to 14.04? AFAIK that is not possible without a clean install.

      I'm talking about the Linux kernel... the 14.04 is the whole Ubuntu version... From your server run umm...

      uname -r
      

      should tell you the version of the linux kernel...

      Have you done software updates yet?

        @dafyre Ah, gotcha. Yes, it is a 16.04.1 installation and is completely updated. I am running release 4.4.0-31-generic.

          I'm fresh out of ideas for the moment.

            @dafyre no problem, too much time on this would be a waste, it is a fresh install. Going back to 14.04. Just would have liked to figure out what it is, kind of feels like giving up... 😉

              lol. Yeah. I'm having an issue in my Tumbleweed install... also a fresh install, so I know the feeling.

                Ubuntu 16.04 shutdown issues here, too. But it fixed itself after it updated.

                  It's not.

                    @DustinB3403 Indeed! Never had any problems with Ubuntu server.

                    I always have issues with it 🙂

                      @scottalanmiller Really?? I hate to say it but I am really thinking about going to centos for these kind of things. I downgraded completely to 14.04 and it is running like a charm. I just have been using Ubuntu for such a long time.... 😕

                        I only use Ubuntu when I have to. For servers it's CentOS first and Suse second and Ubuntu as a last resort for special cases.

                          @scottalanmiller I couldn't find a way to mark the post as closed/ answered. Do I need to do anything to shut this one down?

                            It's currently marked as a discussion rather than as a question. In theory you can use the Topic Tools and "Mark as Question". Once it is a question, then you can go to an individual post and mark that one as the answer OR you can use the Topic Tools again and just mark it generically answered.
