Fedora 12 crushes during reboot & shutdown

[nickzl]

Hello,

Recently I installed Fedora 12 64bit in my HP Compaq 6720s. Among many other problems that I had and I solved with your help, I have the following problem:

When I restart or shut-down Fedora 12 it crushes and hangs and only thing that I can do is to stop and restart my laptop by means of ON/OFF button.


My question is:

Is there any way to see this error (maybe some log file or something) so I can send this message or log file here in this forum and get some help?

Thanks in advance.

Look in the logs in the /var/log/ directory. Remember the date and time when the problem occurred. Look in the logs for those dates. For example the most recent logs such as /var/log/messages , /var/log/Xorg.0.log, /var/log/gdm/:0-greeter.log etc. may be too recent to encompass the error. There should be older versions of these logs with slightly different names.

Another idea is to configure your system to use a text boot and see if the problem still happens. There will be more messages on the screen to watch.
