The power button on my desktop
by linux2021 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5CAD7)
hi linux fans,
I have a very old desktop roughly 7-8 years old.
I have to push the power power button several times before it powers up.
I'm not sure if the power button is dying, a loose power cable or something with the power supply.
Anyway, the computer works fine after boot up and it doesn't reboot or anything like that. It's just the power button which I have to push several times to get it power up.
Any ideas on the power button? Thanks
