I'm not sure why it did work in 2.4.22 but doesn't now. :( 1- Have you configure Power Management support on yes (CONFIG_PM=3Dy) ? 2- you use poweroff command or shutdown -h now ? poweroff can have better results (I think). 3- no longer have to worry about compile w/ or w/o APIC because you should have same results if you use "nolapic" on boot options, or not use. best regards,=20 --=20 S=E9rgio M.
