Dear friends:
[Using Lm 8.0]
Would appreciate your help with the following problem:
Sometimes LM 8.0 will reboot properly and sometimes it won't. And
sometimes it will shutdown properly and sometimes it won't. When it
doesn't, Linux freezes at "Please wait while Linux reboots" or at the
very end of the "shutdown -h now" sequence at "unmounting file systems"
instead of "System halted" or "Power down." These two problems may be
connected. This is more than just a nuisance. When LM 8.0 does not
reboot or shut down properly, it goes through its "not clearly
unmounted, check forced" routine. Of course, with ReiserFS, this now
takes only a second instead of 10 minutes. But, still, it feels me with
anxiety and worry that there is something really wrong.
NOTE:
Whenever I log on, I get the following strange message in the console:
sher07 login: Winbond Super-IO detection now testing ports 3F0, 370,
250, 4E,
2E, SMSC Super -IO detection now testing Ports 2F0, 370.
I then have to type CntRL-C to return to my usual logon screen with the
prompt, so I can log INTO KDE with startx.
Any idea if this has anything to do with the reboot and shutdown
problem? Could all of these issues be related in some way?
Thanks so much.
Benjamin
