Porblem Shutting down my Archlinux pc
Hi,
I recently installed archlinux on my old pc, I got everything up and running perfectly,
But I have one problem,
after using the shutdown or poweroff command the pc starts shutting down, but keeps on with the message power down/off..
I tried installing the acpi package and acpid, but it didn't help.
Can anyone give me a clue?
I'm using an Asus A7S333 mainboard with a athlon xp 1700+ cpu, which should have no problem with acpi as far as I know.
Thanks,
Bartus

# gpasswd -a %USERNAME% power
And then, re-login your user.
Does it help?

I'm allready in group password, do I also have to use that command for the root?
What happens if you just press the computer button, does the machine turn off, or do you have to hold it in?
When I press the power button after using the poweroff command it turns itself off, but only after a second or so, I don't need to hold the button
