Shutdown

[lpotter]

I noticed that the sl-6000 is missing the Shutdown app.
I created an ipk for those developers and users that want this

Thanks for the linkage

I was planning on doing a halt from the command line when I go on vacation for a week.

The 6000 does consume enough power from battery during suspend that I can tell the difference if I leave it unplugged overnight. When I plug it back into AC in the morning it takes a little while (10 mins?) to charge the battery back to full.

I\'d imagine if I left it for a week, I\'d run the battery down some. Eventually it would drain the battery and that would make the Z unhappy when I power it back up.

A quick and  easy way to shutdown is welcome

Don\'t know about the 6000, but the Cxx0 series you can shutdown by sliding the battery switch to \"unlock\", hold down Fn+Home and lide the switch back to \"lock\", keep holding the Fn+Home keys and in a sec or so the unit powers down - also useful for those times when the Z locks up.

Sharp also recommends this way to shutdown prior to flashing, but I usually just reboot while holding the \"Ok\" key

lpotter, where is the shutdown app ? I can\'t access that site.

[Stubear]

You can do it yourself - make a script with the following

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh

qcop QPE/System "shutdown()"

and make an icon that runs this script

The reset button on the back is the quickest way to do a shutdown.

LOL, but there are times that you want to do it gracefully. The shutdown app lets you stop qtopia without rebooting the whole machine.

OK, for that, I have a shellscript that runs \"killall qpe\"
