   I'm running this kernel on my EeePC 701.  When I tell the system to halt
   it shuts down almost everything (the screen goes off) and then hangs.  It
   leaves one LED on and produces some heat as the only indications that
   it's not off.
 
  Does this error still occur with more recent kernel versions?
 
 Yes.  I don't think I've tested the very latest kernel package (the one that 
 came out a couple of days ago), but the one before that had this happen.
 
 It doesn't seem to happen all the time.  In the past it had seemed to happen 
 every time (but perhaps I had just got unlucky), now it seems to fail to halt 
 about 70% of the time.

Hi,
The next release of Debian (6.0, code name Squeeze) will be based
on 2.6.32. Please test the current 2.6.32 from unstable/testing and tell
us whether the problem persists. If so, we should report it upstream
to the kernel.org developers.

The 2.6.32 kernel is available from packages.debian.org and can
be installed in both Debian stable, testing and unstable
installations.

Thanks,
Moritz

I have been running an Unstable kernel on the EeePC in question for a while 
and have not noticed the problem.  I think that the problem is fixed in 
2.6.32.  Feel free to close this bug, I can open another if the problem 
occurs again.

Could it be that the presence of the SD card makes the difference? If so,
this would be a duplicate of #496540.

 this would be a duplicate of #496540.

I have /home on an LVM volume on /dev/sdb (which is a SD card).  The SD card 
is always inserted and I have never had any problems booting in this regard.  
In the past I found that there was a 50% chance that my system would hang in 
the boot process when setting the clock.  The fact that it worked 50% of the 
time when the SD card was installed indicates that #496540 would not be the 
problem.  In recent kernels that hang on boot seems to have gone away.

pvdisplay tells me PV Size7.51 GB / not usable 512.00KB which I 
understand to mean that the last 512K of /dev/sdb is not used.  So it seems 
to me that it would be impossible for me to encounter any variant of #496540 
(which is related to reading the last 8 sectors on the device) with my 
current configuration.  But it could be that I misunderstand something about 
how LVM works.

Also I have just checked my EeePC configuration, I am running the latest 
kernel (apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't offer me a newer 
one).


I believe that this bug should remain open and should not be merged with 
#496540.
