Oh good, it's reproducible! :) I'm getting the exact same symptom, Jeff -- win4lin locks up when shutting down. Your message had great timing ... I actually just played around with the win4lin + preempt patches; I think I might know what's causing it to lock up. I'm just about to reboot, so I'll let you know if my attempts were successful. -- #ozone/algorithm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - trust.in.love.to.save -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
