Yes, and it is indeed, the acpid is running and it detects my power button and starts the poweroff when I hit it. > Unless you booted with noacpi or some such parameter.. > So let's have a look at the kernel boot logs, I believe this is normal, I have done a grep -i acpi on the dmesg, here is the result, if you want the full dmesg tell me: BIOS-e820: 000000003fff0000 - 000000003fff3000 (ACPI NVS) BIOS-e820: 000000003fff3000 - 0000000040000000 (ACPI data) ACPI: RSDP 000F7560, 0014 (r0 Nvidia) ACPI: RSDT 3FFF3040, 0030 (r1 Nvidia AWRDACPI 42302E31 AWRD 0) ACPI: FACP 3FFF30C0, 0074 (r1 Nvidia AWRDACPI 42302E31 AWRD 0) ACPI: DSDT 3FFF3180, 65F2 (r1 NVIDIA AWRDACPI 1000 MSFT 100000E) ACPI: FACS 3FFF0000, 0040 ACPI: MCFG 3FFF9880, 003C (r1 Nvidia AWRDACPI 42302E31 AWRD 0) ACPI: APIC 3FFF97C0, 007C (r1 Nvidia AWRDACPI 42302E31 AWRD 0) Nvidia board detected.
