That's working great for shutting down, but rebooting seems to get caught in some kind of a loop or something. After going down for reboot the screen flashes several times and then displays the console as it looks right after boot-up but before xdm starts. The cursor next to login flashes but it does not respond to key presses. I am setting up xdm and gdm for the first time. Any ideas? - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
