Auto Shutdown the System


  A simple command can be entered in the Terminal to schedule a time for the system to shut down.


    Go to Applications (or Main Menu) > Accessories > Terminal.
    Enter sudo shutdown -h +m (replace m with the number of minutes, e.g. +60).
    OR: enter sudo shutdown -h hh:mm (replace hh:mm with the time on the 24hr clock, e.g. 23:15).
    Enter password and minimize the Terminal window.


The system will then shut down within the minutes or at the time specified. To cancel a scheduled time, enter sudo shutdown -c in the Terminal.


Alternatively, you might want to download and install GShutdown, which is a GUI program for scheduling a time to shutdown the system.
