Hello,

I had trouble on halt/shutdown on my box for several days. I track it
done on splashy.

No enabling splashy with by ex. "ENABLE=0" in /etc/default/splashy is
fine.

When splashy is enable, the box won't shutdown anymore, it just stays
frozen in different state of graphic screen (got a blue screen
yesterday).

This freeze seems to happen earlier since my upgrade to the last debian
kernel.

I don't have any idea how to dig in this, but I'm willing to follow
instructions.

$ lspci | grep VGA

Hello Fabrice,


Hello Luis

What happens at boot? Splashy works fine?

Yep, I didn't get any pb at boot time (little pengin & progress bar
are show up ok)

What happens when you run Splashy by hand: /sbin/splashy test
(Press ESC to exit)

Will try tonight.

Are you using vesafb? cat /proc/fb; cat /proc/cmdline

I'm using nvidiafb :
$ cat /proc/cmdline
root=/dev/hda2 ro console=tty0
$ cat /proc/fb
0 NV18

I don't know what else could cause this.

Bad interraction between Xorg & splasy on video RAM ??

Extract from my xorg.conf :
....
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Nvidia GeForce4 MX"
        #Driver         "fbdev"
        Driver          "nv"
        BusID           "PCI:1:5:0"
        #Option         "UseFBDev"              "true"
        Option          "UseFBDev"              "false"
EndSection
....

After yesterday night "sudo halt", I got stuck again.
The box was still responsive to ping.
nmap show up ssh + a bunch of rpc services (I'm using nfs on this
computer).
but ssh -v from another computer didn't get any answer.

 You are not running Splashy
from initramfs right? cat /etc/default/splashy | grep INITRAMFS

No.
$ cat /etc/default/splashy | grep RAMFS
ENABLE_INITRAMFS=0

 If you are, please disable that as this is very experimental.
ENABLE_INITRAMFS=0 will disable it. Then you need to run:
update-initarmfs -u

Last, you can purge Splashy 0.1.8 and install the latest release,
Splashy 0.2.1. I uploaded packages to
http://splashy.alioth.debian.org/debian/incoming. I'm waiting for
Otavio to upload them to Sid (pending verification of course).

Will try tonight.
