Ubuntu 13.10 won't shutdown/restart

Question

I installed the 'new' Ubuntu 13.10, and it won't shutdown/restart from the menu. When pressing any of those buttons, Ubuntu will close some programs and then do nothing.

The only way that I've to shutdown/restart my PC is by blocking it, then moving the mouse so the black screen goes away, then changing user, and finally shutdown/restart from the login screen.

Anyway that I can fix this?

Thanks.
