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

[Dietmar Sovonja]

Hi Milan,

on both computers I have the latest BIOS. I tried other OS (Debian, 
Haiku and Windows XP) and they all turn off the computer. It seems to be 
a problem with OpenIndiana.

I found a similiar discussion on the Opensolaris mailinglist, I followed 
the instructions I found there and came to the same results as the 
thread starter. I don't know what I should do.

Shutdown/Poweroff will not turn off computer

Is it possibly a bug?

Best Regards,

Dietmar
