I am looking for a way to get my computer to automatically shutdown when I press the power button. I have installed Ubuntu 12.10 minimal. A similar question is asked here. However, with Ubuntu Minimal, I do not have the /etc/acpi/
directory, most likely because ACPI does not come installed by default?
Is there a way to shutdown the computer nicely via the power button without the use of ACPI? Or do I have no choice but to install it?
