Hi
Does anyone else have this as an issue? The system gets the "System Halted" message but does not do the next step of turning the machine off. (i pressed ESC after selecting shutdown to watch the text display of the shutdown process)
Is there a configuration item for this or does it sound like a bug?
regards
Ian
that depends on what command are you issuing..if you issue "shutdown" then it is expected to behave that way.. "poweroff" is the correct call.
I disagree. The behaviour ha changed. "shutdown -h now" used to end with poweroff. Now it doesn't. The man page makes it clear that the "-h" means HALT. Like I said, it used to work, but after some updates to the kernel it stopped working. If you look at the man page for poweroff you'll see that by default if calls shutdown. In fact there is an embedded error message that recommends, if you are doing this from the command line, that you use shutdown instead. And for shutdown, isn't "-P" (poweroff) the default? Of course with systemd, strange things might happen ... as they are both a symlink to systemctl =) My point is that IT USED TO WORK right after the install/upgrade and that I see this across a number of distributions. -- Misspeled?
