Hi, sometimes, my machine doesn't shut down, but hangs after a 'shutting down alsa' message. Then I have to use the magic SysRq key to force shutdown. I don't think it's an alsa problem, but something with the ZIP drive. It's the external SCSI model, mounted by autofs. Attached are some messages from /var/log/messages
