At last - someone who posts some diagnostics with their problem!
One problem though. It's in Starwriter format. What about us who don't use
Starwriter! Can you not post the relevant part of /var/log/messagesin plain
text format?
DO NOT POST ALL OF /VAR/LOG/MESSAGES! IT'LL BE HUGE AND PEOPLE IN HERE WILL
BECOME EXTREMELY ANNOYED!

Subject: [newbie] Shutdown Error
I am running Mandrake 7.0 and everything works fine
until I logout and shutdown. The shutdown appears normal
but at the end I get a page full of alpha-numerics. I
have to reboot into windows and shutdown from there. I
have linux in its own hard drive. I have attached a
document with the error message. Thanks for any help
