Trio3b Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 (edited) Dual boot W2k / MDK 10.2 . Am able to completely power off Compaq from W2k and also from MDK 10.2 console using 'shutdown -h now' as root, but PC only shuts down but not power off from logoff in MDK 10.2 GUI as user. Have tried different settings in MCC boot and KDE login mgr. option is modified with "acpi=ht" but doesn't work . Have read tons of posts on this but no help. Any help appreciated Thanks Edited December 20, 2005 by Trio3b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Is acpi enabled on your machine? You can normally check this in the /etc/lilo.conf file to see if there is acpi=off against the "linux" line that you boot from. Also, is acpi installed? What is your security level? Is it set to high? I normally have set to standard when running a desktop, but LE2005 defaults to high on installation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trio3b Posted December 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Have enabled ACPI in MCC boot configuration , but no luck. Also removed and reinstalled ACPI package. Also, ACPI will not start in MCC services. Also 'start on boot' is ticked. Have not tried security setting, yet. Will try soon. Thanks Is acpi enabled on your machine?
