Bug#421779: linux-source-2.6.18: Poweroff doesn't work on Sony VAIO S4M
Package: linux-source-2.6.18
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12
Severity: normal
I've tried recompiling the kernel , playing with ACPI options (kernel
configurations and acpi= parameters) , but POWEROFF doesn't work.
When I do "shutdown -h now" the system starts powering off and then
stops with the line :
acpi_power_off called
I've also tried the lastest mainline vanilla kernel 2.6.21.1 and I've
got the same problem.
I've also tried powering off by APM and what I've got is a black screen
after shutdown -h now finish to umounting the filesystems , but the
system remains on (Fan spinning and the screen is black , but the LCD
backlight is still on).
I will attach my dmesg in the next message .
