Slackware 14 hangs when restarting (Dell Latitude 6520)
Hi all, I installed Slackware 14 on a Dell Latitude 6520, and everything seems to work fine except for restarting.
Code:
shutdown -h now Code:
shutdown -r now The system seems to shut everything down as expected, but it hangs after "Restarting system": Code:
Broadcast message from root@euler (tty1) (Mon Aug 5 13:34:44 2013): I've also seen some suggest that using the apm kernel module instead of apci can help, but it appears that apm isn't installed in my kernel. So, before I compile a new kernel I thought I'd double check here. Any other suggestions? Also, if I do need to compile a new kernel, what's the best way to get the source code? I decided not to include it in the initial install (because, hey, I've never needed it before!). Can I download it via slackpkg, or should I just download the same version from kernel.org? Thanks! |
Your computer may needs reboot quirks. Try to use a newer kernel, or use magic sysrq to reboot at the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.6
Code:
echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger |
Had an acer aspire one that did that, not sure of your problem, but appending reboot=efi to my lilo.conf fixed it. Like I said this fixed my issue, not sure if your dell is having the same issue. According to http://intosimple.blogspot.com/2012/...with-arch.html you can fix it with reboot=pci
