shutdown issue, need tutorial

[tinny]

I have experienced a final shutdown hang over several distributions on this box. All *buntu , Vector, Mint, none of them will shut down this standard Intel chipset P3 1000mhz. I would give more info, except I havent figured out where the sys info utility is in Bianca. MSI 815 PRO (aka MS-6326) motherboard, 512MB PC133 ram, 10.2 GB hdd. That refusal to shut down may be a quirk of the latest kernel re P3 mobos.

Please show me a good tutorial for making edits to fix an APM/ACPI shutdown issue? I have made that edit for APM on a slower P3, but not ACPI. I believe the BIOS in this computer has ACPI settings. I'll double check and post a correction if not. On second thought, maybe I already made this edit for Kubuntu 6.06.1 which is on another (separate) hard drive in this box.

I have Bea on another computer, Abit KR7A mobo with Athlon XP 2000+ processor, and it never had shutdown issues, nor did Kubuntu 6.10 on the same box.

Any clue why P3 mobos do this (hang on shutdown)?

Hate to say it, but you are probably better off posting this in the Ubuntu forums as there are TONS more people there. If it is a problem with ALL Ubuntu distros (Mint included) it seems the best place for a solution would be the Ubuntu forums.

Hopefully someone will post the solution here and make a fool of me.

What does this mean?

[17179569.184000] ACPI: BIOS age (1997) fails cutoff (2000), acpi=force is required to enable ACPI
[17179569.184000] ACPI: Disabling ACPI support

this means that the ACPI is not enabled... if you know that your mobo can handle ACPI you may try to force your system to use it...
to make this you have to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst, search your kernel entry and add acpi=force at the very end of the line

it should look like this:

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.X.XX-XX-XXX root=/dev/hdXX ro quiet splash acpi=force
