All that I see for linux-source is 2.6.29. I tried building 2.6.29 but
the latest fglrx fails to build for 2.6.29. I use fglrx since I have an
ati video card and it seems to work better for me.
I can't tell for sure but it seems like the lockup on shutdown may only
occur when wireless is on in Network manager. Even though I am
connected to the network wired and not wireless. I have an atheros
ar5212 wireless card which seems to be very flakey with network manager.
That is one of the reasons I wanted to try 2.6.28 because of the
wireless improvements.
The lockup on shutdown doesn't happen 100% of the time. It is probably
85-90% of the time.
