no shutdown options mandrake 10.0
I've already posted this in the mandrake forum, but then i spotted this forum for people like me so apologies for the double post
anyway it may seem a bit of a dumb question but here goes How do i shutdown my computer?, i can't seem to find a shutdown "button" anywhere, all i get on the kicker is log off and lock computer. I've checked the system config and changed shutdown to all users, but still don't know what to do. i also tried opening a console and typing shutdown but to no avail if i select log off, it says logging out dave and then brings up a different looking gui that i can do nothing with. the only way i can shutdown my computer is to turn it off, not good cheers |
become root and type shutdown -h now
or if your not root type su it will ask you for your password then type shutdown -h now |
Open terminal
#su #poweroff |
I had that problem too...sorta. When I tried 2 put in a new graphics card gnome wouldn't load the display adapter and the terminal wouldn't let me init0 or shutdown at all :( I fixed it though.
