bvc Posted November 11, 2002 Report Share Posted November 11, 2002 Great! This might help with the kernel compile. http://www.mandrakeusers.org/viewtopic.php?t=967 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 Instead of halt, or shutdown -h now, try; poweroff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kdsudac Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 I had the same problem, and it also seems to be "fixed" if the power button is held down for about 5 seconds. An inconvinience, but better than having to pull the cord. Also, now it hangs up because I mounted a harddrive on my windows machine throuhg samba. Apparently, it can't unmount the network drive. Does this mean my method of sharing my windows computer is not a good one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 I think the 5 second holding the power button thingie can be modified in some bioses, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 Well, I found that it doesn't work everytime...for me, about 3 or 4 out of ten poweroff will turn off everything. I recompiled the kernel so I can halt again now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcdragon Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 Yes My computers ended up with the same problem after I disabled all acpi option when recompiling the kernel. I'd suggest recompiling the kernel using the Mandrake defaults as a starting point then removing what you don't want while leaving apm and acpi totally alone.

bvc Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 The mdk defaults for ML9.0's 2.4.19-16mdk has acpi disabled. So I have to disable apm and enable acpi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
