Hi Everyone,

I have an issue where the poweroff command reboots my system.

Using /sbin/shutdown -h also reboot the system.

I am unsure whats causing this or how to go about finding the cause, I am
not sure if its something I have done when I installed fedora or not.

Pressing the power button on the front of my cause also makes the system
reboot and not shutdown as expected.

Has it always done this or is it a new problem?

In the past, on other Linuxes, I've found that a firmware update can
help with this - as does running the latest available kernel. ACPI is
usually responsible & it's a compatibility minefield for non-Windows
OSes.

It's always done this since fedora 17, but I have only ever upgraded with fedup so I just figured I was taking the problem with me, ideally I'd like to get to the bottom of it and fix it.

I am running the latest version of the kernel, as for the firmware update I'm not sure if this has been done or not, or what firmware I should be trying to update.

I do yum update very regularly.

Thank you
Daniel.
