[parisc-linux] soft power and power light on 712/60

[kenneth westelinck]

I had a similar problem a while ago. The following URL should lead you to
the discussion I had that time:
http://lists.parisc-linux.org/hypermail/parisc-linux/8454.html
So eventually, the soft power worked, and is still working on my 712/60 even
with the latest kernel. Please note that I build the kernels myself, I never
use prebuilt ones (unless for installing ;) ). You should find my working
.config as an attachment
(http://lists.parisc-linux.org/hypermail/parisc-linux/att-8454/02-.config).
You can use this one, or do a diff with your .config to see what you're
missing.

Hope this helps.

Kenneth
