Many times we want to know how to turn off the computer, restart it ... each one after a certain time or at an exact time, well, here is how to do this from the terminal:
To shut down the PC:
kzkggaara @ geass: ~ $ sudo shutdown -h now
Nota: It is necessary to enter our root password since administrative permissions are required.
To turn off the PC after a specified time:
kzkggaara @ geass: ~ $ sudo shutdown -h + "desired-time"
Must change ""Desired-time"”For the number or number of minutes to wait before shutting down the system.
Example: sudo shutdown -h +10 // The system will shut down 10 minutes after entering this command line.
Nota: It is necessary to enter our root password since administrative permissions are required.
