I just asked this same question in comp.os.linux.hardware (see the thread w/ subject "power down fails"). In my case, the solution was to force loading of the ospm_system module, by mentioning it in /etc/modules. Now that I do that, my system powers down as expected. Although I should add that my symptoms were a little different from yours: I didn't get a blank screen. Instead I was left with all of the shutdown messages, ending with "Power down." Not sure about your restart problems. Maybe another ACPI module is required, but I never had any trouble with restarting. Good luck, Andrew. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
