The following patch worked for Tribe 5. Strange how Edgy and Dapper and Puppy ... shutdown O.K. but Feisty and Gutsy Tribe 5 don't. Maybe there's a clue for you in what the fix may do.
Cheers, Jerry "Shutdown" doesn't This system powers off with Edgy, Dapper, Knoppix, ... but not Feisty. If I select Shutdown after a while nothing's happening, there's no message on the screen, and the keyboard and mouse are dead. Someone on some forum (where?) suggested: Do sudo gedit /etc/modules. Add the following line, then save: apm power_off=1 do sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst (where the l is a lower case L). Find the line that start with "kernel" and add this onto the end, no carriage return, all on the same line which probably wraps over: acpi=off apm=power_off then save. Power off however you can, power back up and on "Shutdown" it should. Mine did. Usual cautions apply when changing system files..... -- Gutsy shutdown doesn't https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119308 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
