I have an Abit NF7 and I am unable to poweroff it, be it with the poweroff command or with the button allowing for soft-poweroff. I am force to used the switch near the alim for hard-poweroff When I use the poweroff command once the daemons are stopped the screens becomes black and perhaps there is a small reduction in the noise but the fans including the processor fans remain rotating and there is no way to awaken the machine except by powering off with the alim switch and powering it on again. When I use the front button from the case (the one allowing for a soft poweroff) then depending on how the ACPI is configured I get an orderly shutdown and then the same symptoms as above or the box immediately ennters in that state without a shutdown. (ie black screen, small reduction in noise and no way to aawken the box again be it with the soft power button or the Reset button). Is anyone able to do clean and complete poweroffs with an Abit NF7? I am wondering if it is a Linux not being able to handle thie model of motherboard or my individual motherboard being defective -- Jean Francois Martinez <jfm512@xxxxxxx>
