Alan....this is a known 8.1 problem with a published solution which is covered on the errata web page: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/errata.php3 below I've included what it says about your problem on the errata web page. :) -- Alan Error scenario: The computer locks up when shutting down or when stopping the usb service. Why: In certain cases, the usb-uhci module is broken for some usb devices. Solution: Modify your /etc/modules.conf file and change the line "alias usb-interface usb-uhci" to "alias usb-interface uhci". The change will take effect after the next shutdown and will prevent the usb service from locking up the computer.
