I am working on a script to automatically shut down after x minutes of no keyboard use.  I tried "halt" to shut down but it does not power down. Â
<apink>
The documentation says halt is the way to go.  I don't know what I am missing.
<apink>
The only options on halt are -n and -f, neither of which seems to be right to power down.  ???
<kristianpaul>
there is a daemon that recognices power on/off button press then it shutdown the system

apink, nanonote use poweroff
<xiangfu>
apink, /sbin/poweroff

xiangfu,  Thank you.  I found poweroff but found somewhere on the net that I should use halt.  I will use poweroff instead.
