----------begin quote----------- My PC doesn't power-off on shutting down? Well, you are not a lone user coming to this problem. Make sure of all these things first-
*Check your motherboard for APM support *Your kernel is compiled with the APM support and the 'real-mode flag' is enabled *For 2.2 kernels add the "apm=on" flag in the /etc/lilo.conf (for append="" secion) or pass at the boot time *For SMP kernels add the "apm=power-off" also in /etc/lilo.conf or pass at the boot time *For 2.4 kernels, do "insmod apm power_off=1" *Use the appropriate command like poweroff or shutdown -h to shutdown your system. If you use ctr-alt-del on the command line, change the line in /etc/inittab to begin with 'ca:' *If you still can't make it work, try using ACPI instead of APM (only for 2.4 kernels). ACPI does not need any other boot parameters ---------end quote---------- At last, after 4 days, the poor guy get's a real answer.
