Shutdown without poweroff (notebook)

Shutdown without poweroff (notebook)

[Oliver Eichler]

Hi,

My system:
Acer 5024 notebook
SuSE 10.0

My problem:
The notebook will not poweroff at shutdown.

I guess there is something wrong with ACPI. However I have no clue where to 
start looking. Can anyone give me a hand on troubleshouting?


Thanks

Oliver

take a look at http://tuxmobil.org/acer.html
there are three reports listed about your machine. no SuSe, though.

Yes, I know these. But no one seems to have problems with the power button. I 
couldn't googel any other complain about the power button for this notebook. 
I could find several power off complains for other devices, but their 
solutions didn't work for me. That's why I ended up here as the last 
resort :).

I had similar problems, I noticed that knoppix v4.0 powered of just fine. So I
copied the kernel .config, made a few changes pertaining to drivers that get
compiled it, and it works.  I really do not know which option(s) made the
difference though....

SuSE YOU and kernel hacking are bad friends. I looked into .config but 
couldn't find anything suspicious. (see extract at the end of this mail)

I wonder how much this could be related to a bad DSDT. I searched the DSDT 
database. There is one for the ACER 5024, however it is marked as "1.13 
original", thus I guess it is the plain original DSDT of the notebook.

I found this at the end of dmesg:

Call Trace: <IRQ> <ffffffff801581b5>{__report_bad_irq+53}

Looks like the ndiswrapper for my Broadcom Wireless LAN Card messes around 
with the acpi stuff. I don't know if this is related to my problem.

Any ideas for further investigations?

Ndiswrapper should be unrelated (just try without loading the module and you'll know).
I got reports for an ACER Ferrari.
Some reported that uncommenting the gfxmenu entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst helped.
For some others it will reveal another problem then: shutdown is doing a reboot one time...

Good luck,
