Pani Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Hi! I am new to linux and I have just installed Mandrake 10.1 . Everything works fine,but I have a problem with shutdown. When I try to shutdown,the computer stops when "Power down" appears on the screen. To shutdown,I have to press the power button then. Have I done sth wrong during installation?

iphitus Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 No you havnt done anything wrong, and its quite ok to hit the off button at that stage, once upon a time that was the normal. try enabling ACPI in the Bootloader preferences, or if its enabled, disable it.
