Subject: incomplete power off on sony z1rmp

Hello,

reading the archives I saw that it is common that Sony VAIO laptops
don't shutdown properly. My Z1RMP hangs at
drivers/acpi/hardware/hwsleep.c:338 in  acpi_hw_register_write(), right
after ACPI_FLUSH_CPU_CACHE() .

Is there anything I can do to solve this ? I'd be more than happy to
start dealing with it, but I have no idea about kernel programming. I
can do C, but only for myself :) Is there a recommended way to learn
more about this stuff ?

The kernel is debian patched 2.6.4 + acpi-20040311-2.6.4.diff + swsusp2
+ kdb.

Thanks a lot.
IonuÅ
