As some of you may remember, this is what solved the problem for me some times ago. However, in the last few days, I noticed on 2 occasions that my laptop did not power off. The only thing I changed was playing with usb stuff, making some of it as modules and not. The worrying thing is that it is not consistent. At least I haven't been able to see the pattern yet (as it only happened twice). Will try to figure out and report back if/when I do. Fred |
