Hi,

 

this must be a common problem:

My box does not powerdown completely and hangs on "bad eip ...."

My box Athlon XP on Soyo.

 

I have tries compiling the kernel with and without APM and also I have changed

these settings in my bios.

I had this same problem back in Mandrake 8 and still cannot find any

documentation relating to this. There is nothing special about my system and

it does always power down in SuSE: which gave me an Athlon kernel by default.

Could this be the case?

 

Thanks in advance. 9.1 has performed wonderfully otherwise.

I have not heard of this before and suggest you ask this question in the newsgroup, alt.os.linux.mandrake if nothing further is posted here. My own box does not shut down with Mandrake 9.0 or 9.1, but then I leave it on 24/7 anyway and shutdown through Windows or hit my on/off switch on my power bar at the opening screen before a Mandrake reboot gets started. Crude but effective.
