[SOLVED] kernel 2.6.34 shutdown

[GoinEasy9]

Ever since the kernel has upgraded to 2.6.34.0.10 I've had a lockup on shutdown. This didn't occur with 2.6.34.0.09, and doesn't occur when I slid in a disk into the same machine with F13 running. I took out rhgb quiet from the kernel line and see that there is an eth0 dump, then the line:
nv_stop_tx: TransmitterStatus remained busy.
This is the last line before the shutdown locks up. It also occurs with shutdown -h now. Googling I can only find occurrences of this when network cards lock up and the corresponding networks fail, and the old reasons were bugs in the forcedeth driver. Well, this is on shutdown, and, since I have no problems with my network or network card using other versions of Fedora or other distros in the same machine, I am trying to find out what was different between the present kernel and the last kernel that worked.

The scroll is too fast to see what happens before the eth0 dump, so, does anyone know of a log or a way of vectoring the shutdown scroll to a log so I can see what is going on. Messages, dmesg and the other logs don't seem to have the info I'm looking for.

Thanks in Advance.

Edit: I'm up to kernel-2.6.34-0.28.rc3.git3.fc14 now, it doesn't seem it's going to get fixed unless I can report something.

Have you tried turning off the interface manually like:

service NetworkManager stop
ifconfig eth0 down

tail -n 50 /var/log/messages

Thanks for the idea JEO

As I suspected. networking shutdown and restarted normally. It didn't lock up the way it does on shutdown. The last lines from messages during shutdown last night really don't show anything either, at least not to my eyes:

Apr 10 22:17:30 localhost auditd[1031]: The audit daemon is exiting.

Still trying to find a way to log the shutdown scroll.

You've got to be kidding. 33-49 is almost production and 34-xx is not even oven pre heated yet.

2.6.34 are the standard .fc14 rawhide kernels. 2.6.33 are the .fc13 ones.

[SlowJet]

Yeah, I didn't check the forum to see it was rawhide.
But e9 is always yelling at the sky about the moon.

New kernel in tonight, 2.6.34-0.49.rc7.git0.fc14.i686.PAE, solved my shutdown problems. \o/ yay.

2.6.34-0.49.rc7.git0.fc14.i686.PAE also working well here so far.
