I did a new installation of PCLOS LXDE but it can't restart
« on: October 21, 2012, 02:27:33 PM »
I friends,

I tried the live cd of PCLOS LXDE on a Dell 490 precision but at the end it could not restart...

I had the same problem with an other live cd of the LXDE 2011.06.

I did a new installation of PCLOS LXDE hoping the problem could be solved installing the system but is not possible restart.

Everything seems work, except cpufreq...  :'( and the restart option  >:(

Any idea please?

What did you do, to try a restart?

Did you have lxde-logout installed?
Get you lxde-logout window?

What is happen if you open a terminal, and types restart?

Question over questions

Hi Daniel, thanks again...

Nothing special... I installed the system, updated and add locale.
With the live cd shutdown.

Everything is ok. I have the window.

Nothing:

Code: [Select]
[luis_orden@localhost ~]$ restart
bash: restart: no se encontrĂ³ la orden
[luis_orden@localhost ~]$


The shutdown works fine, but when I do a restart the plymouth theme start but the bar stop the progress after 2 o 3 seconds, at the end I have to do a hard reset pressing 4 sec the button...

Not restart, means reboot, sorry.
Try it as root, and post your result...

Ok "reboot"  :)

The result is the same:

the plymouth theme start but the bar stops the progress after 2 o 3 seconds, I have to do a hard reset pressing 4 sec the button...

Make a reboot, and push immediately "esc" key.

But no restart?

Can you use/install the older kernel, to see is it solved the restart issues?

Have you usb-devices connected while booting ?
Then try with usb-devices  unplugged.

I always get that when running a 'live' system but never once installed. Are you getting this even when booting from the hard disc?

Another possibility would be an acpi problem, perhaps.

Then, if not solution, can we consider this case a bug...?

Today I forget the problem and pressed restart...  >:(

I have a second hard disc, could be this the problem?
