[Bug 43961] Re: Power down after shutdown does not work...

[WillyWongi]

Uooo! This is odd!
Yesterday, despite all the problems with shutdown I wanted to give the
hibernate function a try. After saving all the stuff to the hd,
showing some warnings from the USB I waited the hdd led to stop
blinking and I powered off the laptop with the poweroff button (as I
always did). Resuming from hibernate worked great, after a while I was
presented with the password prompt, with no problems.

Inspired from some penguing god, I tried the brightness keys (fn+f6 /
f7) that, I must stress this, NEVER WORKED, neither from the keys, the
applet or the command line... surprise! I can set the brightness of my
LCD! (but the gnome-applet doesn't work yet...)

After some investigations I found that this achievement could be
because acpi doesn't load a driver for the LCD, infact I've no
/proc/acpi/video folder.

This led me to the next step: the shutdown.. and it worked.
