When I try to shutdown the machine they come up on the console - currently |
| 20 |
running 2.6.29-gentoo-r5. Typically, the oops occurs after the wireless |
| 21 |
driver and alsasound modules are unloaded and occasionally after syslog-ng is |
| 22 |
stopped. No oops take place if I exit X and then issue a shutdown command |
| 23 |
from the console. I am waiting for a newer kernel to see if this problem has |
| 24 |
been fixed. |
