Kernel (uname -r): 2.6.8-2-386
Distribution: Debian Sarge


Every thing works fine except it won't turn off fully - it will get to "power down" and freeze on both Mandrake 10.1 and Slackware 10.0

Edit: After trial and error, I discovered that acpi needed to be enabled. In Mandrake and Slackware, this meant adding acpi=on to /etc/lilo.conf in the append section(s). Debian Sarge probed acpi and enabled it by default :) Conclusion: Very good budget board.
