Thinkpad T470 anormaly long shutdown/reboot except from gnome.

Hi everyone,

It's been two weeks since shutdown and reboot takes anormaly long time. By temporarily getting rid of *quiet* boot option it appears that during logout before a reboot/shutdown
systemd get a timeout with following error message :

`A Stop job is running for User Manager for uid 1000`

with a timeout of 2min. At timeout it shutdown completely (i.e it doesn't hang forever)

I tried lowering down timeout in `/etc/systemd/system.conf` from 90 to 10 without success though it seems to be another option since original timeout is not even 90sec.

What was successful in the other hand was to disconnect from gnome then shutdown which worked as it should : in 10 sec or less.

I checked in `/etc/lvm/lvm.conf` if `use_lvmetad` was on which is not.

Thank you.

It's what I thought, I have to wait for resolution of this bug.

Have a nice one.

You'll be waiting a long time — the bug is closed because the error message is non-specific and due to individual unit files rather than systemd itself. Read the thread, it has several suggestions as to the cause and Mr. Poettering gives some tips on how to track down and fix the problem.

There is also this that may help
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=261369
but personally what fixed this for me was removing all packages except base dev and networkmanager and reinstalling everything I had explicitly installed before but I'm not sure I'd recommend it
