Hi,
This may be silly but (paranoid as I am) I do find this strange, my laptop (Xubuntu) had an update earlier, and as I wanted to shutdown, the system wanted an authentication, I hit cancel and the system logged me out, I logged back in and did not have to authenticate anymore to shutdown...glitch or..."trouble"?
Thanks
Thor
PS - I ran RKhunter and it found nothing...
If I do a
shutdown -r 03:15 &
will this only broadcast the shutdown warning messages to people logged into the server directly, or will this also warn users who are connected to samba shares on this server?
how to shutdown linux system as regular user using command line?

Hi,
I am new to the Ubuntu OS and really enjoying it but currently have an issue with my Acer Aspire ES1 512 laptop with regards to getting the machine to completely shutdown or restart.
It is not a dual boot setup, 100 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS install but when I attempt to press the "Shutdown" option at the top right, it looks like the machine is shutting down, shows the Ubuntu logo with dots but does not physically turn off the machine.
At the moment, I have to physically press and hold the power button.
FYI, I have also tried sudo shutdown -h now
Any ides/help would be great as it's the only issue I am currently experiencing.
Thanks.
Hi,
This has never happened before. My system has been stuck while shutting down for almost 6 hours now. After clicking the shutdown button, the top bar and bottom bar on the screen disappeared and now all i can see is my wallpaper, the computer icon and my pointer, cant move anything. What can I do to avoid doing a hard shutdown?
I am trying to upgrade/install Nvidia drivers. Instructions say that I need to shutdown x server to do so. How in the world do I do that? I can't seem to find any help for that on the net anywhere.
i have windows 8.1 and ubuntu 14.04 ....now wen i try to access a drive of windows in ubuntu it says failed to mount.
then i used "sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda4" for mounting the drives ......it worked for all drives except the E drive (not the system drive).
it gives error windows is hibernated , shutdown windows.
I shutdown my windows properly but still that particular drive refuses to mount..
any solns?
Hello all,
I was going through LFS yesterday and planned to change the symbolic link from "{bin/sh}{dash}" to "{bin/sh}{bash}". Unfortunately, I disconnected from bin/sh but forgot to create another link. Now the system won't boot and failed to shutdown. Wondering if I can make a symbolic link for it on the Live USB or is there another solution? The Distro is Linux Mint 17.1.
Thanks.
