Mandriva 2007 will not close down

[confused 0]

Hi

 

I have just installed 2007 from the Linux Magazine Nov issue. I did have some problems with it freezing after clinging onto it i.e,. it woul d not load, apart from in Linux non-fb (what is non-fb) and failsafe. However, it now appears to work since I have changed from Lilo to grub! The problem I have is that when I click on shut down the screen goes blank and everything freezes. It does not shut down. Can any one help?

 

Confused

 

PS how do I tell if the version of Manrdriva 2007 that has loaded is the 64_bit version seeing it is down automatically during installation?

Hi there,

 

Have you tried to shutdown using the CLi (terminal) as root

shutdown -h now

then post what errors you are getting if any...
