No shutdown / No suspend

I can't be sure, but I think this happened after I finally removed hal from my system (along with the upgrade to kde-4.6). Since then, I can't shutdown my laptop (hangs at remounting / read only), can't suspend (to ram) my computer. Strangely, reboot works. What could be wrong? What info to provide?

Are you using a GUI login manager like kdm or are you login in via console?

Upgraded xorg-server recently? See this thread on getting everything working with udev/consolekit.

The problems are all related to 2.6.37. Switched back to 2.6.36 and everything is fine now.
