Hi!

no power off

The system works fine, with one exception:

When I shutdown my new Linuxinstallation, the systems halts at „power off“ but doesnt switch off.

System:

Acer ES1-732-P7W8
Windows 10 preinstalled

Ubuntu MATE Desktop Environment 1.12.1
dualboot

rEFInd as bootmanager, no grub

To fix this problem I added acpi=force as bootoption, but no result:

axel@axel-Aspire-ES1-732:~$ cat /proc/cmdline
\boot\vmlinuz-4.10.0-37-generic.efi.signed ro root=UUID=e603161d-b292-4f4a-817b-e819861ad543 splash=silent quiet showopts acpi=force initrd=boot\initrd.img-4.10.0-37-generic

/boot/refind_linux.conf:

"Boot with standard options" "ro root=UUID=e603161d-b292-4f4a-817b-e819861ad543 splash=silent quiet showopts acpi=force"
"Boot to single-user mode" "ro root=UUID=e603161d-b292-4f4a-817b-e819861ad543 single"
"Boot with minimal options" "ro root=UUID=e603161d-b292-4f4a-817b-e819861ad543"

Is there a special systax for this option? Whow to fix the problem?

Thank you for reading!

I found the reason why acpi=force doesn't work in a linux acpi patch mailing list:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9603459/

We have to wait for the kernel patch.
