in brief, yes - the VMWare virtual machine does not receive a "power-off" ACPI command, and therefore sits waiting. If you compile various elements of ACPI into your kernal, then a halt will also close the VMWare virtual machine - I'm not near my VMWare at the moment, so can't advise on the actual kernel parameters involved. -- -- - Steve Crosby -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
