Hi Gerald
I use "sudo halt" on my Morphix install.. It does of course require sudo to be installed and /etc/sudoers configured correctly.
Regards, Paul.

What is the correct way of making 'ordinary' users (i.e., not root) able to shut the PC off at the end of the session? I find that (at least, on Slackware) an ordinary user can't use '/sbin/halt' or '/sbin/shutdown' because an error message is returned, saying something along the lines of "You must be root do do that".
