Symptom is that the system shuts down normally and completely, it just does not power off. Here are the last messages on the console: Will now halt. sd 1:0:0:0: [sdb] Synchronizing SCSI cache sd 1:0:0:0: [sdb] Stopping disk sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Synchronizing SCSI cache sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Stopping disk ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:01:00.0 disabled Disabling non-boot CPUs ... > Can you press SysRq-T and see a task list running and waiting when > things should be shut down? The system does not respond to that anymore. > Do you happen to have a USB storage stick plugged into the system? Nothing. Only USB kbd/mouse. Note that I've had this issue before with this box: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6879 Somehow it disappeared when I pulled the extra video card that came with the system (no decent driver for it, so no loss). Since then the system has always powered off completely reliably. This time it is a clear and reproducible regression. If we can solve this one we might get a better handle on #6879 too.
