 |
|
Hi,
I want to disable that my pc will automatically power-off when I'll do a shutdown.
I have to extend my kernel parameters ?
And in which configuration file do I have to do this ?
I'm using grub.
Many thanks,
Raphael |

Hehe - that's weird 
Most of the people want the automatic shutdown to work - and now you are coming and want to disable it 
Well, I think you just have to disable APM/ACPI in your kernel, but I think I remember that there was also some configuration-file were you had the possibility to setup if the system should power-off or just halt -- but I don't know what file that was... sorry

| check your kernel string in /boot/grub/grub.conf for "apm=power-off" or "acpi=off"... Remove it and your computer will keep running after "power down" has been displayed. |

Never had any string like this in my grub.conf. System halts and powers down anyway.
What works (but it is not really an solution, only bugusing):
Take some older 2.6-test Kernel (at least test5 had still this problem), compile in ACPI and local APIC support. The only Problem (I don't know more) that occured to me was that my computer stayed on power after displaying "power down". Don't know, perhaps there is an option for "shutdown" command. |
