[OpenIndiana-discuss] poweroff does not turn off the computer

[Dietmar Sovonja]

Hi,

when I shut down the computer with the poweroff command, the system is 
going down, but the computer does not turn off. I have to hold the power 
button to turn the computer off.

I installed the build 151a3 on 2 different systems, both with the same 
issue. (The 32-bit version on an Asus Eee PC 1000HE as well as the 
64-bit version on a ASRock P5B-DE Mainboard with Intel dual-core D915.)

On both systems, the computer turns off sometimes, but mostly not. On my 
desktop computer, after the message "syncing file systems... done", the 
system hangs. On the Asus Eee computer, the display turns off and the 
cooler starts running with maximum speed, but the computer stays on.

poweroff: [ID 330035 auth.crit] initiated by didi on /dev/pts/1
syslogd: going down on signal 15
