[Solved] Zorin 9 restart problem

Hi, I installed Zorin 9 on this Lenovo destop. Everything is going well except it restarts after shutting down. I turned off the wake on land in Bios. It still restarts and I have been letting it go to sleep mode. I am new to Linux so have lot to learn. I had Zorin 8 on here and it worked just fine. Thanks for any help, Larry

Hi, have you completed a full update?

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

from a terminal.

Also have you tried the perfunctory 'dpkg' steps by choosing advanced boot mode and then safe mode - select 'dpkg' from teh menu then a reboot to see if the situation gets resolved?

Hello swarfender437. I tried your method and several other people's. I kept searching on other sites and found a post that said that sometimes a wireless adapter or USB device can cause computer to rebbot. Also they said to open the terminal and type (sudo poweroff). I tried that first without unplugging and it still rebooted. I had a DVD recorder plugged in and a camera card reader. The reason I had the extra DVD plugged in is that this one in the computer is read only. I unplugged the two items and type that (sudo poweroff) and it shut down. Thanks for posting though. Took me a long time reading different posts. I am new to Linux so will need help time to time.

Marking as solved!

Hi larry69, glad you are sorted!
