      I hate that bug so much… If you forget to log out however, you can hit ctrl-alt-f1 to switch to the x session, which frees up the shutdown.

        I actually did not know this! I didn’t even think the X session was still alive after getting stuck at “Waiting for User session” blah blah.

          This thread just enlightened me too! It’s been one of those things that I’ve always thought “I gotta look into why it’s doing this” but I never did because it just never made it up my priority list. Happy to find this post and looking forward to the update!
