I was thinking some more about this...I read somewhere that the 2.4 kernel uses /proc events and the 2.6 kernel uses /sys events and that if you're using old scripts with a new kernel "halt" won't work because it's trying to turn off /proc events. Does that make sense? How would I know what my system is doing? (Debian unstable.) > Emma, does your TM634 has the latest BIOS from Acer, i.e. R01-C0O? I'm not sure how I'd check. :/ thanks for all of your ideas about my problem! I appreciate it. :) emma -- Emma Jane Hogbin [[ 416 417 2868 ][ www.xtrinsic.com ]] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...
