Re: Computer won't power off



I don't know ... I did a dist-upgrade. Would that upgrade the kernel?

When I type poweroff, it does the same thing as before, the computer just doesn't power down ... it unmounts all file systems then says power off computer (or something like that) same as before -- it's just that the computer remains on.

I guess the solution is to recompile the kernel?

Thanks!

Do you use the same kernel that was? If you do, then it's a bit strange. I
believe that the APM setting is in the kernel. If it worked once, it
should be now. I think you need to be clearer a bit; what happened after
you issued the "poweroff" command (eg: the messages on the prompt).
