I first noticed this a day or so after installing FC2, which I really like, by th way, when I shut the computer down for the night, everything seemed ok. When I got up the next morning, the computer was turned on, the screen had blacked out, and moving the mouse a bit brought the screen back to the log in screen. At first, I thought my son or wife had turned it on, and just left it.
But, it does this all the time. At least an hour, but less than five hours, after I shut it down, it will restart on it's own.
It never did this with RH9. Is 'shutdown' actually a 'sleep mode' which is timed to restart after a variable time? If so, is this set in the kernel? If so, how do I either disable it so that it truly 'shuts down', or lengthen the time to like 48 hours or 396 or something. If it isn't in the kernel, where is it?
I realize that since Fedora is aimed primarily at the server users, this is probably preferable. As a PC setup, though, I would rather it shutdown when I tell it to, and stay that way till I turn it back on.
Any help in this regard?
Thanks,
