[parisc-linux] not freeing initmem and power button

[Kenneth Westelinck]

Hi all,

After a few months of gathering dust, I finally decided to upgrade my 
712/60. It was initially installed with the old 0.9.2 ISO, and upgraded with 
a more recent kernel (I think it was 2.4.9). This weekend I did an apt-get 
update, apt-get upgrade to upgrade my system (woody). I also compiled a new 
kernel (2.4.18-pa16) for this system. The system boots fine and as far as I 
can see, all applications "survived" the upgrade. The only problem I am 
experiencing are 2 _bugs_ mentionned a while ago in the mailing list.

- When booting the kernel reports: NOT FREEING INITMEM. I found this in the 
mailing list, but I couldn't find a solution. Is there any solution for this 
problem? I don't think I had this when running the old kernel.

- Second, when I push the power button, the system powers off without doing 
a clean shutdown. When running the 2.4.9 kernel the machine didn't halt when 
pushing this button. Only typing in "shutdown -h now" did the trick. I 
prefer this behaviour. In this case a normal user cannot shutdown the 
machine, except by pulling the power cord. Can someone please tell me which 
file to edit/tweak to give back this
old behaviour?

Many thanks in advance.


regards,

Kenneth

enjoy life, enjoy linux,
