Hi,
how can I temporarily disable shutdown or reboot?
My use case is the following: I create a file /tmp/NO_SHUTDOWN. If that file

This is why you use /dev/disk/by-* and not the raw device name, just

Argh, now it works. Turns out that the themes from gtk3-engines-xfce
seem to have a problem. E.g. Xfce-winter from gtk3-engines-xfce doesn't
work, Adwaita from gnome-themes-standard-data does.

I think the problem is that the motherboard/ BIOS (Intel D865GBF, circa
