    Shutdown doesn't work on Toshiba Satellite U405D-S2852

    When the notebook is plugged in, Kubuntu 8.10 doesn't actually turn off the computer. Choosing "Shutdown -> Turn off computer" merely results in a restart.

    When operating on the battery, Shutdown does just what it says.

    How do I fix this behavior? I am configuring Kubuntu 8.10 for use by a technically inept user, so I can't have it doing unpredictable things like merely restarting when it's supposed to turn itself off.

    Check:

    K Menu > System Settings > Advanced > Session Manager > Default Shutdown Option and ensure it is marked as Turn off computer.

      Did that. Didn't work. The computer still restarts instead of shutting off.
