Re: [suse-laptop] Hp Compaq nc6000 does not shutdown when running suse 9?!

To all: same problem with suse 8.2 as well
unfortunately.
To Hermann:
Well, was worth a shot, didn't work though :(.
The hard drive seems to actually power down oddly
enough, it's just the cpu and the power light (from
what i'm able to tell) that remain on (and the cpu
drains the battery quickly).

To Stefan:
Tried oldconfig as shown on that page, still no go :(.
Will take a look at the 2.6.x kernel releases and see
what i can find in release notes that mention the most
about fixes for acpi. Thanks much, will give this a
go and report back with results :)

to change a part of the file in /etc/init.d/boot.

From:
if test "$fs" = /-a -f "$des" -a "$type" ! =
"reiserfs"

To:
if test "$fs"= /-a -b "$des" -a "$type" ! = "reiserfs"

I'm absolutely not sure....

Regards: Hermann

>> Nope, too long ago. Have you tried the kernel boot
parameter
"acpi=oldboot" mentioned on the page?
As far as I remeber the problem was somewhere in
acpi_poweroff.
Other solution: Update to a newer 2.6-kernel. The
ACPI-patch fixing the
problem should be in one of the 2.6-releases (sorry,
don't know which one).

ciao,
Stefan
