           Summary: Thanks for your help .
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: 2.6,23.1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Power-Off
        AssignedTo: acpi_power-off at kernel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: ssenuta at dialup.cc


Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur:2.6.22.1
Distribution: Mandriva Discovery 2006
Hardware Environment: Desktop computer with Asus A8v-MX board & both a Sata &
Pata drive installed
Software Environment: Lilo boot loader; vesa_fb console; KDE-3.4.2
Problem Description:I just upgraded to kernel-2.6.23.1 from kernel-2.6.22.1 and
now my computer power will not turn off at (init 0) shutdown. It just freezes
up forcing me to use the reset button However, if I choose (init 6) reboot, the
computer will reboot

To avoid this problem I have to disable (operating system controlled) ACPI in
my lilo.conf with the acpi=off option. This allows Linux to substitute the
older (bios controlled) APM technology of power management & my computer will
then poweroff.

Kernel-2.6.23.1 was compiled with my existing 2.6.22.1 .config file & their
ACPI modules folders show the same drivers except for video.ko which is only
present in kernel-2.6.23.1  Also, a check of my /var/log/messages shows this:
ACPI Warning (tbutils-0217): Incorrect checksum in table [OEMB] -  E2, should
be D5 [20070126]. This warning doesn't mean anything to me but it may be
important to you. 



Steps to reproduce:Type the command shutdown -h now
