I have a problem here, when I shut down without splash, the last two lines are - will now halt - [xxxx.xxxxxx] power down. where the x's are digits.
as for now, I shut down the pc manually by pressing the shutdown button for more than 6 secs (but I often forget, resulting in a pc running overnight :( ) specs: Edgy Eft 2.6.17-10-386 (upgraded from Dapper) asus p5gd2 premium mobo Note: when I installed Dapper, I had to specify ACPI=off as a kernel parameter in order to be able to boot. The acpi=force and lapic parameters don 't work, then the system hangs at boot. I attached the logs that were asked in one of the first posts. I 'm very eager to test new suggestions out, as this problem has kept me busy for the past weeks... thanks in advance ! ** Attachment added: "my logs" http://librarian.launchpad.net/5652348/wimm.tar.gz -- Power down after shutdown does not work... https://launchpad.net/bugs/43961 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
