Many devices can generate a wake-up signal after the computer is shut down (wake on LAN, wake on key, etc.) and this is evidently happening when it should not. So it is hardware-related but probably caused by a change in the way a driver prepares the hardware for shutdown. > happy to try a few things if you point me in the right > direction [...] Please try to work out which driver is doing this, by removing a driver with the 'rmmod' command and then shutting down.
