concerning kernel panic on poweroff

keywords:
kernel panic, ATX poweroff feature, EPOX mainboard

description of my problem:
dear linux-kernel-developer,

a few weeks ago I compiled my linux-kernel so that it supports the
poweroff-function; so
I decided to mark both apm-support and poweroff on shutdown support in
the make
menuconfig program; after that I compiled my kernel and also changed the
/sbin/init.d/halt file so that my computer runs halt with the p -option
(halt -p) now;
and since then my computer has always been getting a kernel panic when
powering off;
what you see here is the output of my /usr/src/linux/scripts/ver_linux
file

Kernel modules 2.2.2-pre6
Gnu C egcs-2.91.66
Binutils 2.9.1.0.22
Linux C Library x 1 root root 2475225 Apr 30 21:34
/lib/libc.so.6
Dynamic linker ldd (GNU libc) 2.0.7
Procps 1.2.11
Mount 2.9i
Net-tools 1.50
Kbd 0.99
Sh-utils 1.12
Modules Loaded serial memstat nls_iso8859-1

the problem is that my computer tells me oops 0000 and after that quite
a few numbers
which I donīt understand; I think it dumps the registers of my prozessor
which is an 350
MHz AMD; but it does not poweroff; it remains at the point where the
registers are dumped
and thatīs all; by the way, this error is probably due to my hardware,
so I will tell you
about my mainboard:
manufacturer: EPOX
model: EP-MVP3G
specification:
supports ATX power supply connector for a remote off
supports cpu hardware sleep, APM and ACPI (advanced configuration power
interface)
VIAv Apollo MPV3 AGP/PCI chipset
ZIF socket 7;
furthermore I read the instructions given in the oops-tracing.txt file
coming along
with the documentation; but since that did not help I am asking you;
moreover I must mention that this poweroff function works fine under
win98; but as I
think linux should be much better than windows this bug should be fixed;
finally I will add the my /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/defconfig file as an
attachment to
this email; nevertheless I think this bug comes from my hardware;
can you please tell me
where the source code for this poweroff function normally is and what I
have to change
in order to make my system work fine

thanx
