Sometimes this machine is left switched on from early morning until
late evening, and only used a couple of times. Can anyone suggest a
means of causing the computer to shut down if unattended for a
specified time (i.e 20 mins, 30 mins)?
I don't mind the wait while it boots, if I know that it has not been
gobbling watts for the last 4 hours.
I'm not concerned about the arguments that switching on and off more
than necessary stresses the PSU etc.
Thanks,
Peter
Yes, I forgot to mention. The box is running Kubuntu 12.10
