mandrake was still running. I had to reboot into windows (which I never
use) to get the laptop to shut down. I turned off all the power controls
and still have the problem. My desktop shuts down with no problem.
Anyone else having this problem? Is it just a version 10 problem? I
didn't have this problem with 9.2.

I have a Presario 1700T which will go to "power down" and sit. I have to hold the button down for 4 secs to power off. I believe it is a function of the mobo and you may have to disable ACPI or APM. Not sure, what about anyone else? Dennis M. Linux user #180842

No problems with shutdown here (now, anyway, though there were before the 2.6.x series of kernels) running 10CE (now 10.1 Cooker) on this Compaq Presario 2175US. Previously, I'd sit at "Power Down," as well.


Kernel is 2.6.3-9 (though it worked with earlier in the 2.6 series, too), and have "Enable ACPI" and "Force No Local APIC" (nolapic in lilo) checked in the boot loader GUI.

(If that works for you with respect to shutdown, maybe you can figure out how to get my 3D/OpenGL running ... or a functional Shockwave plug-in for my Mozilla Firefox. :-) Those are _my_ annoyances right now. LOL.)
