Cagepup is experimental build to test out using Wayland rather than X.Org.
So do not try to use it for a normal Puppy.
It is only to see how things will work using Wayland.
Probably never going to be a full working Puppy version.

Devuanpup chimaera you need to report this in it's topic:
viewtopic.php?f=112&t=3028

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o

@darry19662018 - I have the same issue with kernels after 5.8, with my realtek codec. You can fix this for this pc with the following addition to the end of the linux/kernel line in grub.cfg/syslinux.cfg:
modprobe.blacklist=snd_hda_codec_idt
On reboot, should shutdown ok.

Thanks Ozsouth,

Added to end of kernel line in Grub4Dos menu and Josejp2424's DevuanPup is shutting down normally.

Thanks Mate I would never have known how to fix this without this info.

Regards

Darren

For anyone experiencing these faults, look for the RIP: line in the crash output (see screeny in first post) - will tell you which module caused crash. If multiple modules, list with a comma between them, in format as per blacklist fix:
viewtopic.php?p=26304#p26304
NOTE: Can't guarantee blacklisted modules won't be missed. If so, earlier kernel may be needed.

ozsouth,

How about you making a Topic, on your fix, in How-To->Boot section of forum?

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
