Tyan S2462 reboot problems
What display adapter are you using? BIOS's earlier than 1.04 screwed up royally with ATI Radeon 8500/7500 cards - actually, so does 1.04, but not as much. I've also noticed that Radeon + Adaptec 39160 corrupts video where without the Adaptec it doesn't. Strange.

Hi.
No, I doubt this has anything to do with Linux. I have a S2460 (which his
corrected post says he has), which does not power down under linux, and *never* warm boots cleanly. It does power down under windows, so I assume ACPI powerdown works and APM does not. I have gone under the assumption that a BIOS upgrade will fix this, but that involves putting a floppy into the box, so I haven't done it yet. The warm boot problems consist of either a hang after POST (but before bootloader, OS irrelevent), or really bad video corruption. I don't know if it boot with the video corruption, I've never let it try.Daniel
