KT333 and poweroff

Hi all,

i've got an MSI KT3 Ultra Mainboard with the VIA KT333 Chipset. I installed Gentoo with the 2.4.19-r5 sources. Everything is fine here exept one thing. I've tried many options (APM, ACPI) but my Computer don't poweroff on shutdown, it only halts. I don't crash it just say "poweroff now" or something but don't poweroff :

.

Any ideas??

I tried this already, but without any result. I tried also a Kernel with no APM and all ACPI options on and a Kernel with both APM and ACPI but no luck.

Thank you for the link, but it don't solve my problem. Today i tried some Kernel options (nearly every possible options I think) but still no luck. Maybe it's a problem with the Motherboard. Is anybody out there who got the same problem with the KT333 chipset or somebody without this problem to tell me his Kernel config??

It could be a settings in the bios, no? Make sure you don't have apm in the bios turned on. Personally I like to have thing set this way plus i never shut down my system (well hardly ever).

PS: I have the same mb but don't know if (havn't shut it down since installing gentoo) my shutdown is the same or not.
