Going to power setting from XFCE menu didn't show the power option, so couldn't change it from the gui. But putting a monitor on machine, and having it boot locally with the gnome option did have the setting in the power options, so set it off there, and it seems to be staying on so far. Luckly the fan has leds so it was very obvious when it went off. Has been on for 8hours 22 minutes, so guess it is working. Don't know if the VNC would work if I have it boot to text mode only? Thanks again for quick replies. Think they should have the default to not power off, and allow users to set it to 15 minutes or whatever if they want. As others said, think this is a Bug. The upgrade from 37 to 38 went fine except for this, but if I had updated my web server with mariadb it would have been a problem. > -- > Todd > +------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.
