Hi,
Though I would report back that upgrading to the latest rawhide (this
morning) did fix the problem. I no longer get the "driver_data is null"
message when I shutdown.
A couple of things:
1)I did not really upgrade I did a clean new install.
2)After the clean install the machine will not boot it will hang
at the very beginning with this message.
"unable to open an initial console" is
displayed, then a few SELinux context messages, then it just hangs.
This is a reported bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=133684
solution to this that worked for me was to add these lines to the
/etc/yaboot.conf file.
sysmap=/boot/System.map-xxxx
initrd=/boot/initrd-xxxxx
Now a have a happy Mac running linux.
Thanks for the help.
Rene

Try upgrading to the latest rawhide, and seeing if this gets fixed
(in fact, so much within Fedora has changed from then, you'd probably
want to yum update/upgrade your way thru[1])
[1] - and yes, its a painless upgrade. Just point to a mirror of rawhide
latest, yum update (or upgrade) and all the packages install fine in a
couple of hours (for an everything install)
