[opensuse] there is still power to mouse and keyboard after shutdown
Hi to all, After I power off my system, I still have power to my mouse and keyboard as indicated by the laser light on the mouse and the numlock light on the keyboard. Is there any way that SUSE can help me figure out if this is a power module problem on my motherboard? Do I need to update the BIOS on my motherboard? Before I was using windows XP, and it did the same thing, but I just installed openSUSE 11.4 (x86_64) so I was thinking that there might be something that is fixable using SUSE but was not fixable using windows (I have a lot of other reasons for going to SUSE besides this). My motherboard is an msi k9vgm_v G -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

G I would think that this is "as designed". When a pc is powered off, it is still in 'standby', and usb devices are still powered to some degree (ie you can still charge a mobile phone plugged into the computer, when, in theory. it is powered off). Then again, I could be wrong... :-) John. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
