I'm using an up to date Lenny installation, standard kernel: Linux version 2.6.26-2-686 (Debian 2.6.26-21lenny4) (da...@debian.org) (gcc version 4.1.3 20080704 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-25)) #1 SMP Tue Mar 9 17:35:51 UTC 2010
I encounter this problem much too often and each time it requires a hard reboot. Strangely, the mouse still works so I can log out of kde, but then the shutdown process hangs until I hit CTRL-ALT-DEL. Then it continues, but the laptop (Dell 8600) doesn't shut down all the way. I have to hold the power button for 10 seconds and then it does shut down. This is a very low level issue. I don't use kppp. This happens with regular poff. I suspect it's related to the cdc_acm driver which is the one being used by my phone (motorola e815) through a usb cable. It's not 100% repeatable. It might be a race condition and I have encountered it most often a couple of seconds after issuing a poff, before disconnecting the usb cable. It does not seem to happen if the ppp connection is terminated by the other side (LCP terminated by peer).
