Hello,

my laptop often freeze after end 'current session'
or 'shutdown' operations. I'm using etch on an Acer Aspire 9100.

Difficult to give more details as nothing is displayed but computer
is still on (ie. fan is running..etc..) and I have to remove
alimentation (sector+battery) to switch it off.
Even more tricky as this freeze happens not allways but around 50%.

Thanks for any clue, or ways to grab more information (dedicated log
files ?) about what happens when related fonctions 'end current session /
shutdown' are called.

Bye,
Bruno
Is there any difference between shutting down as root or as a normal
user?

The flaw in your argument is that you think you're right.

Sorry, but I (as recommended) never log as root. Bruno


No, but that's not the same as trying to su to root and then try the halt command.

If your problem is related to some permission problem it might go away if you try this. And then perhaps the problem can be narrowed down.
