Gentlemen,

This is not about Nitpiciking but thanks for the information (Marius). Second mistakenly last December 2024 I  clicked on the pop-up screen to do a complete distro upgrade. For Ubuntu only, I always do a fresh installation because of incidents such as this. Third all of 2023 up until December 28, 2024 when I ever I selected to poweroff (to prolong battery usage) the laptop would poweroff completely. This is the first time since having the laptop this happened. Fourth, hitting the ESC button caused the laptop to freeze see attached screenshot. Yesterday, will completing an update and upgrade there was a new version of systemd installed. Unfortunately this did not alleviate the problem. Lastly, having this issue will impact users negatively and many hours spent on IT support so again this is not about Nitpicking.

Interesting.  I'm typing this email on my X390 right now, with Ubuntu
24.10 running on it.

I have to admit that I have no idea whether it will power off from
software, since I always suspend or reboot.  I think the last time I
intentionally powered it off was when I was replacing the NVME SSD with a
bigger model back in 2022.  (Letting the battery drain while suspended
doesn't count, right?)

I also see these in mine.  I never noticed any actual problems.

Press ESC while Ubuntu is shutting down and watch the systemd messages
in real time.  Does it say anything interesting?
