>I just tested with an edgy Knot-2 Live CD, and it was unable to power off after plugging and unplugging the power cable.
you mean "since it was not able to power-off I had to unplug the power cable" , right ? btw, I changed my motherboard recently from a Tyan Tiger K8W to a Tiger K8WE. Now the power-off works. For information this makes me go from an AMD chipset to a NVidia nForce4, see also Tyan's website to get more precise description of hardware present on the mobo, may be useful. -- Power down after shutdown does not work... https://launchpad.net/bugs/43961 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
