Package: linux-image-2.6.29-1-686
Version: 2.6.29-3
Severity: normal
System shutdown (poweroff or reboot) does not complete. Screen blanks and then it hangs.
Have to press powerbutton for some seconds to turn it off. The system will NOT start again,
it hangs with hdd-led on at power-on.
The funny part: everything is ok if the ac-powersupply is disconnected and the eeepc is
running on battery! For example, to start the eeepc after a unsuccessful poweroff, i have to
unplug the powersupply, press the powerbutton and then it will start.
Rebooting is working when running on battery, too.
I have also issues with resuming from suspend with this kernel.
