This happens to me on a nForce chipset as well. I wouldn't really consider it a "freeze". The OS is done shutting down. The last thing it does is call the acpi_power_off to kill the power. Unfortunately, the BIOS isn't responding to the power off request. I just cut the power to turn it off. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rick Chen Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2004 6:08 AM To: Wong Kwok-hon Cc: Fedora List Subject: Re: fc 3 powerdown hang On Tue, 2004-11-16 at 12:46 +0800, Wong Kwok-hon wrote: > On Tue, 16 Nov 2004 15:42:53 +1100, Rick Chen <rick.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hello > > After install fedora core 3 and update with the latest > > updates include nVidia 3D driver.

Hello Wong Kwok-hon What kind of configuration and hardware you got? Mine is AMD with gForece 2 64meg. I installed both simple and tradition Chinese fonts but the default system fonts is English. Currently I am not sure whether this hang occur bfore I installed nVidia Driver or not. Also I turned off acpi in services but did not solve the hang. When was your first encountered of this hang? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
