Hello all This should be a fairly simple one: when I log out from Linux, my PC goes through the whole shutdown process, displays 'power down' on the screen, and then waits for me to manually switch the machine off. Is this a Linux feature or should the PC be able to switch itself off? By the way, it will happily reboot the machine if I ask it to, and Win98 has no problems switching off the PC itself.
Any suggestions?
