Re: Mandrake 10 weird acpi behaviour

Hi,

I have now tried to compare different acpi related scripts in mandrake
9.1 and 10.0.

the servcice script which is used to start and stop daemons have no
differences.

The /etc/acpi/event/power script has changed from:

event=button/power PWR.
action=/sbin/poweroff

to

event=button/power (PWR.|PBTN)
action=/sbin/poweroff

I have tried to change it back, but this obviously didnt help anything.

Furthermore, I have investigated a little bit more.

the poweroff script is just a link to /sbin/halt. If I restart acpid and
call halt myself, everything shuts down og.

If I restart acpid and pushes the powerbutton, the shutdown sequence is
started, and the last thing output before poweroff is "Shutting down
acpi daemon"

Don't know why this acpi event has something to do with the acpi daemon
calling poweroff prematurely... ???
