Where in the shutdown process does it hang? What is the last message you see?
If you have a "graphical" shutdown that doesn't tell you everything, you should reconfigure it so you get the old fashioned text-based shutdown script. If you had Mandrake 8.1, I could tell you how to do this, but I'm not familiar with SUSE. :( Rich Cloutier President, C*O SYSTEM SUPPORT SERVICES www.sysupport.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vince McHugh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "NH Linux User Group" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 07, 2002 12:40 PM Subject: SUSE 7.3 hangs on shut down > Hi All, > > I am having an annoying problem with SUSE 7.3 > running on my Dell Inspiron 80000 laptop.
