shutdown program lxde

[uncleV]

hoe about shutdown with at?

At allows you to specify that a command will be run at a particular time
(now or a specified time in the future).

a little question...
What is need for automic shutdown program?
Maybe two scripts...
First script for shutdown

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/bash

dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.Hal" /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.SystemPowerManagement.Shutdown
Second script
A script where can add the minutes to wait before shutdown the computer...

When it's needed, i can create a little app for it...


EDIT:
Done...
Tester can download it here
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2077694/sleeptimer-0.01-1pclos2010.i586.rpm

Install it, and you find the app under Start>More Applications>Monitoring>sleeptimer

Any suggestion write here, thanks...

WoW I am on it dude!

Downloaded - testing!

Leiche You did it again ! Its great.

One suggestion Sleeptimer in the KMenu should start with capital S.

We might work on this script to add different features like to choose between seconds / minutes / hours... so the users dont have to know that one hour is 3600 seconds and 2 hours 7200 ... that may be to hard for some of them !

So far this is a very simple yet very effective and very well working little program. Congrats.

I want it in the repo! ! Send it to Dropbox Freund.

Danke Schon!

Dude You rock!

I tried with short timing like 1 or 2 minutes but it works very well. I like this 10 seconds warning at the end. You can change Your mind at last moment!

Definitely should be in our repo!

Works very very well.

Works like a charm!

But if it could turn off monitor too... would work like two charms!

Buahahahaha ... sorry could't help it! LOL! I have 3 laptops... Turning off the screen is not a problem once the machine is powered off !

You could use the method I used in the past. Power Your screen from the special socket on the PSU. Power comes into the psu via one cable. Power comes out and powers the screen from another socket via a special cable. No power in the PSU - no power on the Screen.

Its the bottom one here. You need a special cable.

Regards.

Andy

P.S. Maybe a Power Saving scheme in the Screen Settings itself? I mean in the monitor.

I was joking only but you reminded me this feature, thanks.
Your advice could be useful to somebody.

A very useful; ) add to this applet would be an audible beeping while the last warning about shutdown is displaying.
How do you think?
