Well, I have two things that you can try:

1) put in your kernel parameters "nodma", this will slow down the access to IDE discs but see if this can solve your problem, if this works, back to "dma" to speed up your discs and use hdparm to turn off dma when shutdown your machine.

2) look to the file /etc/sysconfig/mydsl, if have some extension there, make a backup and put only a word "free" in this file.

If doesn't solve yet, let's gonna find another ways... Count with me ;)

Bye.

Hello Mauro,

Tried both, with no goals. Seems xWindow crashes when shutting down.

It crashes too from time to time (couldn't find a pattern to simulate this).

I'll download another xWindow manager (as DSL package) and try running it to see what happens. Post the results here.

Any other idea welcome.

Kind regards,

Cristiano

Key, you stated in another thread that booting dsl 2 would allow shutdown. Does a normal boot into X and then doing a manual exit of X to CLI prompt and then using a sudo shutdown -h now work?
