Simply whenever I try to restart or power off the computer, it will freeze and stop responding, forcing me to hard shut it down. This happens any time I try to restart; random freezes also occur, which I have not been able to find out the cause of.

  • Have you tried running commands like `sudo poweroff` or `sudo reboot`? – mchid Jan 23 '19 at 17:05
  • sudo reboot works, sudo poweroff does not, it just freezes. – Jameson Jan 23 '19 at 20:13

    The following answer lists a bunch of commands you can use to power off the computer: https://askubuntu.com/a/578155/167115 Also, I have a Dell laptop and I think that I just needed to update to fix this problem: `sudo apt update; sudo apt dist-upgrade`. Additionally, how much swap space do you have? Sometimes swap space can impact shutdown and cause freezes. – mchid Jan 23 '19 at 22:23
