RE: [gentoo-user] Shutdown -h now is not powering down system.
halt -dp worked for me...never tried it before. Now, I did do a couple of things. I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.20r8 and set the acpi=force kernel parameter. I don't know whether the acpi=force paramenter fixed the problem. I did see the gentoo shutdown.sh script (which you can view at the bottom of this message) and it seems to call the halt command with the options -dp. This means that before the same halt -dp was being used and the system did not shutdown properly. Now I manually enter the halt -dp command and it works flawlessly. So, maybe it was the kernel upgrade or the acpi=force kernel parameter that is causing it to work. # Copyright 1999-2006 Gentoo Foundation # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 opts=-d [ ${INIT_HALT} != HALT ] opts=${opts}p # here it is [ ${RC_DOWN_INTERFACE} = yes ] opts=${opts}i [ ${RC_DOWN_HARDDISK} = yes ] opts=${opts}h /sbin/halt ${opts} # hmm, if the above failed, that's kind of odd ... # so let's force a halt /sbin/halt -f On Fri, 2007-06-01 at 12:47 +0900, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -Original Message- From: Richard Marz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 01, 2007 11:40 AM To: gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Shutdown -h now is not powering down system.

It seems to be giving me the same behaviour as shutdown -h now. On Thu, 2007-05-31 at 22:39 -0400, Richard Marz wrote: No. But, I will try it now.

I will try that right now. On Thu, 2007-05-31 at 23:51 -0300, Norberto Bensa wrote: Richard Marz wrote: I have all the appropriate power management interfaces enabled in my kernel.

Re: [gentoo-user] Shutdown -h now is not powering down system.
My Bios is up to date. It's not the BIOS. Shutdown has been confirmed to work with linux and freebsd kernels on my machine in the past.
