Hi,

A good request starts with a detailed explanation on what is not working.

Whats your isse? What is the desired behaviour? What is the expected behaviour?

I think you need to check gentoo handbook / wiki / any linux help source for the following keywords: ACPI, kernel, kernel-configuration.

It may help when you can provide what you did so far! Which init system do you use? Which desctop envirionment?

grub does not have anything to do with freezing your box when shutdown your box. Grub is a bootloader.

well assume your input devices do not work properly! Which kind of input devices are they?

So, did you install Gentoo and this is happening when booting your Gentoo instalation? Or does this happen when booting the livecd to install Gentoo?

AS written on previous post.

Configure your kernel properly with ACPI / support for your input devices.

It is not grub, it is bash which may freeze and thats not correct as you may did not add ACPI support to your kernel at all.

Reading between your lines I assume the following behaviour. Your box shutdowns and everything is shutdown but did not turn off your box because the acpi event is never triggered to fire the poweroff. which could be wrong configured kernel / userspace or buggy bios (which i doubt as of now) Because everything is shutdown the keyboard is also dead but the last step to turn off power never is triggered. also when you write reboot also does not work, it is the same as the reboot event is never handed over because of lack of ACPI support.

Check gentoo wiki / handbook about using genkernel or build your own kernel from scratch.

These are a starting point

https://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Genkernel

Nevertheless you need to understand what you do and therefore you should read the articles regarding kernel / acpi to solve your issue.

The kernel thing is a very complicated thing. You have to try around until it works or read the docs.

You may try this and check
Code:
grep ACPI /usr/src/linux/.config



if you get something similar as myself

** Every kernel paramater has an explanation and therefore you may read about what it does before changing it **

Please note the kernel has so many options and it is just a recommendation. every kernel option has an explanation.

should you find a difference, you need to adapt your config first and than rebuild your kernel, and use/boot in that newly build kernel.

I just recommend you upload your kernel.config to a pastebin but it does not change the fact that you have to check your kernel for the ACPI settings if they are correct

e.g. search engine result
http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/ACPI_BUTTON.html
Quote:
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON: Button >>>
This driver handles events on the power, sleep, and lid buttons. A daemon reads events from input devices or via netlink and performs user-defined actions such as shutting down the system. This is necessary for software-controlled poweroff.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called button.
