nroman 0 Posted May 6, 2004 Hi... I installed fedora on my acer... it was quite painless... then I updated the video card (VIA KM400), and the driver for the touchpad. The problem now is that when I choose to poewr down, it restarts the laptop... I have either to use the button or to go to win XP and power down from there... any ideas? Share this post Link to post

danleff 0 Posted May 7, 2004 There have been a few posts on this model. Good to hear that you got the drivers to work Try booting with the acpi=off option. Or try noapic. Are you using Grub or Lilo as your bootloader? Share this post Link to post
