How to poweroff reboot suspend and hibernate as ordinary user?
I'm using reboot poweroff pm-suspend and pm-hibernate as root, but what should I do to run this as ordinary user?
I have tried visuo and add something like this:
| Code: | | nil ALL = /sbin/poweroff, /usr/sbin/pm-suspend |
But it doesn't work at all.
Please tell me what should I do. |

NUIL ...
when using sudo you retain the PATH for the user runing sudo, and by default /sbin (where poweroff is located) isn't in that PATH. I expect this is the issue (though providing the exact command, and output, is always recommended). That being the case either use 'sudo /sbin/poweroff' or add /sbin to path (and so execute 'sudo poweroff').
bash:
| ~/bash_profile: | | export PATH="$PATH:/sbin" |
zsh:
| ~/.zprofile: | if [[ $EUID != 0 ]] && (($+commands[sudo])) ; then
typeset -xT SUDO_PATH sudo_path
typeset -U sudo_path
sudo_path=({,/usr/local,/usr}/sbin(N-/))
fi |
| ~/.zshrc: | | zstyle ':completion:*:sudo:*' environ PATH="$SUDO_PATH:$PATH" |
