reassign 310384  kernel-image-2.6.8-2-386
thanks

Hi Vegard,

I think there are 2 parts in your problem:

1) you have installed NUT, but not configured upsmon.conf,
which is there for UPS protection (ie shutdown the computer
when needed...).

The mentionned POWERDOWNFLAG is a file definition
that means, when it exists, that the system has shutdown
for power failure reason. It generally points to /etc/killpower

So, you either don't need NUT or you should finish to
configure it as per the README.Debian instruction.

2) The shutdown / poweroff no more working on 2.6.8
kernel is not related to the above! The above is only
a warning message, not stopping nor modifying the
shutdown behavior. When the nut init script is called,
it simply test if the file defined by POWERDOWNFLAG
exists, and if so, calls a routine the shutoff (hardware
UPS shutdown) the UPS. Otherwise, if this flag isn't
defined in upsmon.conf, it print the warning message
you've seen.

So your problem don't sit in NUT, but in the kernel
itself... You should also post more information
about your hardware, and look at message log
to see if there are some error / warning message
that can be useful to hunt this bug.

Thanks for your report,
Arnaud
