:Hi, :I often watch movies untill I fall asleep. As this has been generating quite a :bit of income for electricity companies, I tried using shutdown -h +60. : :This makes the computer though proceed with shutdown but stop at the very end :saying something like "You can shut down your computer now or press a button :to reboot". : :Why is this happening? ACPI? Whats the best way to time a shutdown? : :Thanks, :Petr
I always use 'halt -p' myself. 'shutdown -p ...' should work well. A shutdown without -p does not normally power off the machine. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dil...@backplane.com>
