Hello all,
Mythfrontend is set to turn off my computer using the command "halt".
Mythfrontend is run as an non-root user - in this case user "piers" - so
when I try to exit MythTV, and I select "Yes, exit and shutdown" - it
jsut says "Command not found". Obviously this command isn't available
to non-root users. So how do I enable the user "piers" to be able to
shut down the computer without opening up too many obvious security holes?
Thanks very much for your help in advance
Regards - Piers
