I recently swapped my computer into a new case - that includes the mainboard, PCI adapters and other peripherals including the hard drive with the existing operating system.
The only thing that may have changed is that some PCI adapters *may* be in different slots.
If I want the system (Debian) to shutdown it does but the power now won't go off although before the swap it always did.
Any ideas?
The power gets shut down by a control signal from the motherboard to the power suppy I believe, presumably you have a different power supply in the new case, maybe the shutdown signal is absent or different in some way.
