*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 162561 ***
not the same problem as in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=162561 problem still exists with kernel-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4.i686.rpm and kernel-2.6.12-1.1434_FC5.i686.rpm
kernel-2.6.12-1.1446_FC5 seems to print more messages, but power off fails again: Halting system ... md: md0 switched to read-only mode. ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:02:01.0 disabled ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:1f.5 disable
I have some news for this matter. since 2.6.11 kernels my machine don't power-off on itself, even the last kernel-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 kernel doesn't work, so I tryed to have a look at the brand new 2.6.13 vanilla kernel and compile it. It seemed promising since the number of changes in poweroff, reboot and ACPI subsystems were huge. And it works ! With this kernel the machine is finally able to power-off itself. Everyone should try to compile a vanilla kernel and see if it resolve this bug : -get the 2.6.13 archive and uncompress at /usr/src/ -copy /boot/config-{your_current_kernel} in .config -launch make all and answer to all the new parameters (leave by default if unsure) -mkdir /lib/modules/2.6.13 -launch make modules_install -launch make install -reboot and choose the 2.6.13 at grub prompt -press power off button or shutdown in gnome-panel and see if it power offs on itself
isn't bug 155127 duplicate ?
the problem still exists with 2.6.13 vanilla kernel, the kernel do not poweroff my machine with the MSI Board.
Mass update to all FC4 bugs: An update has been released (2.6.13-1.1526_FC4) which rebases to a new upstream kernel (2.6.13.2). As there were ~3500 changes upstream between this and the previous kernel, it's possible your bug has been fixed already. Please retest with this update, and update this bug if necessary. Thanks.
problem still exists with 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4
IBM 440 8687-XXA with 4 Xeons, kernel 2.6.13-1.1526_fc4 the problem still exists.

2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 has been released as an update for FC4. Please retest with this update, as a large amount of code has been changed in this release, which may have fixed your problem. Thank you.
problem still exists with kernel-2.6.14-1.1636_FC4.i686.rpm
a good day for peoples with the mSI MS-6758 (875P Neo) Board. With kernel-2.6.15-1.1823_FC4.i686.rpm the problem doesn't longer exists. 'shutdown -h now' works for me.
Why does entering "shutdown -h now" from the command line works but the Gnome/KDE shutdown option will cause this problem? Do the Gnome/KDE use poweroff as command ? poweroff from the command line do not poweroff the machine.
when you do it from gnome, how far does it get ? Does it go all the way to 'power down' messages being printed ?
the Gnome/KDE shutdown print the following messages, but the computer doesn't power off. Turning off swap: Turning off quotas: Unmounting pipe file systems: Unmounting file systems: Halting System ... md: stopping all md devices. md: md0 switched to read-only mode. Shutdown: hdb Shutdown: hda Power down. acpi_power_off called
a real poweroff from console, works at the moment only with 2.6.15-1.1823_FC4 and in conjunction with apm=real-mode-poweroff in /etc/grub.conf
were you going from memory on that, or is that the argument you're using ? The reason I ask, is that there's no such parameter in the current kernel, so it should do the same thing as if you'd not passed any options at all :)
sorry i couldn't remeber excactly the argument, but now i have the correct on. At the moment i have 4 different Kernels running on my system. But now it come the extremely mysterioese on it, please believe me, I have no drinking beer wine or drugs. If i want that the power_off works on the last actualy kernel in this example 2.6.15-1.1824_FC4, i need always a additional line or a dummy line in the grub.conf. # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You do not have a /boot partition.

does poweroff still fail with FC5 T2? Is it possible to try a 2.6.15 kernel.org kernel to see if this is specific to fedora, or a generic problem that that may effect only specific systems?

I couldn't test this version > Is it possible to try a 2.6.15 kernel.org kernel to see if > this is specific to fedora, or a generic problem that that > may effect only specific systems? with the 2.6.16-rc1 kernel there is no longer need of a additional line above the booting kernel version in grub.conf, therefore i think it's a problem mit the fedora kernel ? all of the listed kernels poweroff the machine correct ! # boot=/dev/hdb default=1 timeout=25 splashimage=(hd1,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Fedora Core (2.6.16-rc1) root (hd1,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-rc1 apm=realmode-power-off ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.16-rc1.img title Fedora Core (2.6.15-1.1824_FC4) root (hd1,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.1824_FC4 apm=realmode-power-off ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.15-1.1824_FC4.img title Fedora Core (2.6.15-1.1823_FC4) root (hd1,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.1823_FC4 apm=realmode-power-off ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.15-1.1823_FC4.img
I found a solution for my problem. It is no longer necessary to add a additional line in grub.conf above the booting kernel line. With grub-0.97-2 from FC5 the problem is gone. The bug report could be closed.
This is a mass-update to all currently open kernel bugs. A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO_REPORTER state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. Thank you.
with kernel version: 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4 and the standard FC4 grub-0.95-13 the machine poweroff correct. It's no longer need a additional line in grub. the grub line looks like this: title Fedora Core (2.6.15-1.1830_FC4) root (hd1,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.1830_FC4 apm=realmode-power-off ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.15-1.1830_FC4.img I think the bug can be closed.
same Pb, described in bug #180006 , this time it appears with the 2.6.15 series. however the solutions showed here didn't worked for this case.
