[gentoo-user] unable to reboot

[gentoo-user] unable to reboot

[Arnau Bria]

Hi all,

after an update my system is unable to reboot, or shutdown...

it hangs just after unloading ALSA modules, and nothing else happens.

I had some problem with gcc (after the update), something about I had
to remocpile it because of some bug. but apart from that, nothing else
strange.

 gcc-config -l
 [1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.2 *


I've recompiled sysvinit, and I'm wondering if I need to recompile
somethign else


# eix sysvinit
[I] sys-apps/sysvinit
     Available versions:  2.86-r8 ~2.86-r9 2.86-r10 ~2.86-r12 {ibm kernel_FreeBSD selinux static}

i don't know how to debug or next step... I've lost my xfce menu icons,
so I was wondering if maybe my gcc problems are most serious than I
first thought.

Anyone found this probem before?

TIA,
Arnau

I had the same problem, but I don't recover how I exactly solbved it,
but it has to something with settings in the /etc/modprobe.d and
/etc/modules.d configs. If you don't get the answer until I am at home,
I will you later what todo.

In the mean while try get MagicSysReq Keys to work. With those you can
end or kill all processes in that runlevel so that you can clearly shutdown.

It will be nice if you could send me your solution...

AFAIK it is not recommended to unload the ALSA modules anymore and
will become default behavior soon. Try to add this to
/etc/conf.d/alsasound

UNLOAD_ON_STOP="no"

Also check this bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=232875 for
more info about this problem (if indeed it's the same one you are
facing)

Exactly that was the problem. I am sorry it will take some more time until I can past the excat solution. I
killed my partitiontable while trying to install d..n ... .. .... windows in parallel.

Try to dig some more for this unload thing.
