Hello. I'm a regular user and after installing Trinity with Raring packages
in Mint 15, system won't shutdown/restart but hangs at plymouth. Is there a
workaround for this because I have to use REISUO to shutdown and REI part
doesn't work because for some reason it's disabled. Please help. (I've
installed and reinstalled several times and issue occurs only with trinity
desktop. I usually install only kdebase-trinity with kmix-trinity and
compiz-trinity packages. Thanks.

Plymouth may not actually be part of the problem, but you might try killing
it first and see if it helps. It's not needed after startup anyway, but for
some reason Ubuntu (and apparently Mint) leaves it running. I have one
older machine that still has Ubuntu, and plymouthd takes 5% of the CPU even
though it does nothing, so I kill it automatically with a script in cron.hourly.

I can not help much but I have the same problem. I've found a dirty work
around that helped me somewhat.
in /etc/init.d/sendsigs I changed line 124
if [ $seq -ge 300 ] ; then
against
if [ $seq -ge 30 ] ; then
Here system waits for any jobs in stop/killed state for 300 seconds to
terminate. Unfortunately a trinity job (might be hald, can't remeber exactly)
does not terrminate. Thus the system waits 5 minutes to continue the
shutdown. I shortened this time to 30 seconds. It now shuts down but does not
switch off.
