Remember I warned you that there were no guarantees with an APT pinning downgrade from a mixed system.
Because you had that mixed system and what you tried (downgrade) is not really supported, this current problem could be related. > The problem is every time when I reboot or shutdown the system, the > screen hangs at the message 'acpid exiting'. > > The version of acpid is 1.0.8-1 which is lenny version. > > I also tried the new version but didn't get through. Presumably, you upgraded to that 2.6.24 kernel while your system was Etch because you need some functionality that it provided. It would be good if you could remember (or check your system log) if anything else had to be upgraded at the time you did the original upgrade to 2.6.24. I'm not clear what you mean by "didn't get through" but it probably doesn't matter, a squeeze version won't necessarily solve your problem. > > Anybody has ideas of how to resolve the problem. > If it were my system, I would try a newer kernel, the one from the release version of Lenny. It might work better with the version of acpid that you now have. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
