[-- Attachment #1 --] ----- Original Message ----- From: Irene Muller To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 11:37 AM I have a question about my emachine I hope you or someone can help me with it Not a big problem When I closedown the computer occasionaly an hour or so it comes back on by itself sometime in the middle of the night Please tell me what to do to stop it from comming on by itself THANK YOU Is this a FreeBSD Operating System machine? There is a known issue with Windoze with a known fix. Check out microsoft.com if so. If it's FBSD, how are you calling shutdown? Shutdown -r would bring back rather quickly. Shutdown -h would bring it back when your cat walks on the keyboard at 200 AM. And James is right to question your Suspend/sleep settings in the BIOS...... Put information in your problem description if you want people to have any idea what the problem is.....
