I have nearly the same problem as the original poster. Ubuntu server, 64bit. I just upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10 (Zotac ITX board) - and I did not change any settings in the process so it should work as before. But. The system will not power off when it's supposed to - which is scheduled to happen at 23:00 every day (via cron). It will halt the system but it will not cut the power; I have to hold down the power button to cut the power. The last two messages are: * Will now halt... [ 174.941747] System halted. Thanks for fixing. Same as Bug #881792 and Bug #880240. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/809628 Title: "halt" does not power off the system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/809628/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
