Hi Michael, The "shutdown -h now" command still does not solve the problem. The system shutdown for a few seconds and then restarts by itself.
The 'halt' command does stop the cpu and the screen goes black however the system is still On and i can see the cursor on the top-left of the screen. Thank you for your reply With Regards, Dwijesh On Mon, Mar 30, 2015 at 11:12 PM, Michael <codejod...@gmx.ch> wrote: > Gajadur, > > There is /etc/default/halt (or so, i'm no more using Debian), you can try > to switch to the alternative.
