Re: How to trap ctrl-alt-del?

The s6-poweroff is for root user, and I have users who wish to poweroff, and I don't want to give them sudo rights to power off the computer. That is why I am searching for simple solution. Create a "poweroff" group. Add all the users you want to that group. chown root:poweroff

Re: Problem with s6-softlimit -c

Well, there's no output on the console and no logs - after it does its thing it just hangs, doesn't execute the next program. This: s6-softlimit -c 204800 this_binary_desnt_exist also hangs. That's weird. What is the state of the process after it hangs? (S, R, D or something else?) --

GNU Emacs now runs in foreground

The GNU Emacs now has got a new option: emacs --new-daemon=NAME that is running emacs daemon in foreground, obviously someone reacted since last time I wrote to the emacs mailing list. It is in the development version or git. http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/emacs/ That is great news for those

Re: How to trap ctrl-alt-del?

Setting `kernel.ctrl-alt-del' to 0 just makes C-A-D send SIGINT to PID 1 (instead of triggering a hard reboot). If you want to make SIGINT trigger a grace shutdown, you can modify the SIGINT handler in the `service/.s6-svscan' directory. But I personally do not think changing signal semantics

Re: How to trap ctrl-alt-del?

OK that is correct, I need to configure acpid, for power off. And I will leave defaults of reboot with ctrl-alt-del The s6-poweroff is for root user, and I have users who wish to poweroff, and I don't want to give them sudo rights to power off the computer. That is why I am searching for simple

Re: How to trap ctrl-alt-del?

Thank you much. I have figured out that I had to change kernel parameter to be: kernel.ctrl-alt-del = 0 and now I see that ctrl-alt-del reboots, it is by default. What exactly should I change or do, that is simply does power off? On Sat, Nov 26, 2016 at 10:36:22PM +0800, Casper Ti. Vector
