dullo Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I don't know what information will be needed to figure out this problem but I'll post whatever I think will be most helpful. My problem is that when I shut down my computer 10 to 15 seconds after it shuts down it will turn itself back on. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L I installed from kalyway's 10.5.2 DVD and upgraded to 10.5.6 using the combo update from apples website. I am also using the voodoo kernel 9.5 right now. Any ideas how I can get my computer to stay shut down and not turn itself back on seconds later?

limini Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Hmmm... Never heard of this Search and you will find. There are solutions on this forum. Look for "restart issue" or "restart problem".

rtbas Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I have the same motherboard and had exactly the same problem. I tried the standard shutdown script which disables all but one core and OpenHaltRestart.kext with no luck. In my case, the problem had nothing at all to do with the software: on this particular motherboard, the Wake-On-LAN functionality has a bizarre name (something with RING in it, I don't remember the exact phrasing) that I missed in my initial pass through the BIOS options. Anyway, with that turned off and OpenHaltRestart.kext installed, my system shuts down without any problems. I realize it's likely you've already thought of this, but I figured I'd better mention it, just in case.
