hey guys, i'm a kubuntu 20.04 user.
for some reason, since the last 2-3 times i've shut down my computer it takes +5 minutes to actually shutdown. pressing "esc" shows this:

this goes for at least 5 minutes until it finally shuts down, also showing this:





i've read about it online: this seems to be a common issue. this workaround ( https://unix.stackexchange.com/quest...ion-c2-of-user ) doesn't seem to address the real problem. is there a fix for this? this hasn't been an issue before (been using kubuntu for +6 months now), all my packages are up to date.
please let me know if you need me to show some outputs; i really don't know what to do here. thanks!!
