Hi group,
Here's a switch: a computer that refuses to turn OFF. When I open a
root console and enter shutdown -h now my eee 900A Asus Intel-n270
freezes with the message:
The system is going down for a system halt NOW!
Looking at ctrl alt F12, after the usual, normal messages there is this:
<...>
:mtrr:no MTRR for d0000000,10000000 found
:cpufreqd: term_handler :Caught TERM signal (Terminated), forcing exit.
and at ctrl alt F7 I see:
<...>
*Stopping CPU Frequency Daemon ... [ok]
*Storing ALSA Mixer Levels ... [ok]
*Killing processes using ALSA ... [ok]
*Unloading ALSA modules ... [ok]
The very first thing to try is to change your /etc/conf.d/alsasound so
that it has these two lines:
# Deprecated options:
# Upstream feels, and we wholehartedly agree, that this was a silly idea
UNLOAD_ON_STOP="no"
KILLPROC_ON_STOP="no"
May not help, but that change should be made in any case.
