I've noticed too that some thin client are just freezing
when you push
the "shutdown button".

Then I just switch off manually.

6.10 is more beautiful but 6.06 works fine.

Best regards,

We see this on various machines -- the apm/acpi stuff is
apparently not
able to fully power the machine off and the screen stays
visible.  It looks
like it hung (which is bad), but that's not really the case.
 Windows 2000
has a similar issue on a lot of hardware.

It would be nice if, when you press the power down button,
ldm displayed a
"power down" popup -- that would make it clear
what had happened.  This is
also how windows deals with it, putting up a "it's now
safe to power off"
popup on the screen.

Hi All,

I have seen this particularly with Etherboot cards. 

We have a lab with mixed Etherboot and PXE cards. All the
PXE
workstations will turn off on shutdown. None of the
Etherboot will.

Kindest Regards
