What do you mean by "manually shut down the laptop?" If you mean punch the power button, there's your problem. > a Dell c610. How do I fix this? How do I get the laptop to shutdown > without me manually pushing the button? As root, "sync ; sync ; shutdown -h now & exit" Change the "-h" to "-r" to reboot instead of shutdown/halt. "shutdown" unmounts all your drives and marks them clean so fsck doesn't have to check them at boot time (except if it's time to check it, after a specific number of re-boots; then checks will be forced). -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
