Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot up kernel 2.6.8-1.603. 2. Shutdown the system. Actual results: The system displays "acpi_power_off", but it doesn't turn off. It doesn't matter if acpi=on is passed to the kernel - it makes no difference. Expected results: The system should switch off. It does with FC2 kernel 2.6.8-1.521. Additional info:
BTW, for hardware specs, lspci output etc., see bug 122604.
Just for the record, this seems to work fine with 2.6.9-rc4 vanilla kernel (i.e. the system does get switched off). Hmm...
Strangely enough, the 2.6.8-1.607 kernel, which is based on the above vanilla rc4, doesn't do this right. Same message: acpi_power_off called and then nothing. The system stays powered on.
I'm having the same problem. Fujitsu Siemens notebook (celeron 850).
Maybe related to this kernel bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1141 Does anyone know if these patches are part of mainline/Fedora kernels? Maybe they actually do work...
