mystified Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 After doing my updates I can't shut down Mandriva. It freezes at "stopping laptop mode". Apparantly something in the updates broke something. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianw1974 Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 You could display laptop-mode service. All it does is help your battery last longer, and things like this that relate to laptops. If when disabled, you find it behaves correctly, then you could leave this service disabled. To disable: chkconfig laptop-mode off and then reboot, or a quick test when you shut down is: service laptop-mode stop and once stopped, then try to shutdown/reboot, etc, and see if the situation improves.
