has anyone found a fix for the acpi problem in FC3 yet?
in Fedora Core 3, when I run shutdown -h now
it tries to halt the system, but gets to:
power down. acpi_power_off called.
then just HANGS there.
has anyone found a fix for this yet?
just wondered. I know there's a bugzilla report about it, but I was just wondering if anyone found a fix for it yet.
thanks.
I have the problem also and am baffled with it not powering off the unit now. My logs did not show an lead to this problem.
There is a patch submitted or referenced in the bug report. If the patch works, then pushing out a conforming kernel might be in the works. I just hold the power button in on my ze4315us without hyperthreading and the computer powers down.
I hope that other acpi items are not effected as well. I would hate for thermal runaway to kill the box because of other broken items within acpi.
