Re: [Xen-users] Problem with power down
When typing "halt -p", everything is unmounting, but the last word of
the kernel is "Power down" and nothing more happens.
Same here. It's actually worse than this; the power button simply
doesn't work so I have to hit the reset button when the kernel
says "Power down" and turn of the computer when it's showing the
bios screen.
Powerdown from a pristine 2.6.16 kernel works fine btw.
Does it work if you hold down the power button? I'd expect that holding it
for a few seconds would poweroff the machine.
The problem is that Xen doesn't support powering of the system, so if dom0
tells it to "halt" it'd do just that - halt the system. But it can't then
power it off, so it just sits there :-(
Power management stuff will probably be looked at at some stage, but it's
not been a priority so far. The old behaviour was to reboot if dom0 halted,
but that annoyed people even more ;-)
If anyone's interested, I think there have been some design discussions on
how to make this stuff work properly... A knowledge of some subset of APM /
APCI / the linux implementations thereof would probably be useful ;-)
Cheers,
Mark
