[ug-bosug] Shutdown latency issue: Compaq Presario F730US

[Manish Chakravarty]

I have noticed the following condition while shutting down.

It does not occur all the time, but it does happen frequently ( say two
times out of three)

 

I have noticed that this occurs if my laptop has been on for a long time and
been doing heavy builds.

 

When I do a halt as root from a terminal:

-          A lot of hard disk activity happens

-          Some windows close, others stay open , but blank out ( esp in
JDS)

-          After a couple of mins, all HDD activity stops

-          Display remains the same as in [2]

-          Hitting any key reboots the system

-          The display will be in the same state as [2] unless some key is
hit.

Team,
I have SXDE b79a on Compaq Presario F730US. When I shutdown, it takes closer
to 10 minutes for the system to power off. Even if I disable services like
webconsole, sendmail, etc., doesn't help much.

See the attached snippet from /var/adm/messages. About 9+ minutes elapsed
between shutdown and power off.

Output of scanpci is attached too.

Seen similar behaviour with B72 too. Reboot is fast enough.

Regards,
- Raju
