[solved] shutdown but no power off
« on: 2014/12/21, 19:23:39 »
Hi all,

first: thanks a lot for again a great 2014.1 release – appreciate it!

I've got a fresh indiansummer install (2nd trial) with unfortunately an annoying issue.
Selecting shutdown or reboot from within XFCE or the login screen shuts down the computer but I've to hold down the power button for about 5 sec to power off the computer.
State before holding down the power button: screen goes blank, disks terminate, fan still runs and power lights are on.

Executing 'systemctl poweroff' (or reboot) from tty1 as su works as expected.

...
Dez 19 14:30:19 rebel lightdm[995]: Failed to get D-Bus connection
...
I've also tried to narrow down the issue by activating 'system.log_debug systemd.log_target=kmsg log_buf_len=1M' in the boot options but couldn't really find something usefull.
I would be grateful if you can point me in the right direction to solve this.
thanks in advance!
best regards
