Re: Keyboard Blinking after shutdown

Hi,
I'm having a non-ATX machine (no automatic power-off) without a monitor and want it to indicate me by blinking of the keyboard lights, when the shutdown procedure has finished.

I am convinced that somebody knows a simple solutions
Thanks in advance

Um, rewrite the BIOS?

Alternatively (and far more realistically), you can hack the shutdown/reboot/halt application (depending on which is being called) so that at the same time it prints "Power Down" on the (non-existent) monitor, it blinks the LEDs. But I'm not sure this falls into the "simple solutions" category.

Still, it sounds like a useful project for some folks, so perhaps someone has already done the hacking and has a package for it; but I'm unaware of any such package.
