I'm a newbie in Ubuntu and I have just installed it. Problem is that power off and reboot buttons don't work. I'm turn off my PC by long push off POWER button on my laptop. How fix this?

1) To shutdown type the following command:
sudo poweroff
or:
sudo shutdown -h now
to reboot type:
sudo reboot
2) Edit /etc/acpi/events/powerbtn
Open terminal and type:
nano /etc/acpi/events/powerbtn
It will be something like:
# /etc/acpi/events/powerbtn
# This is called when the user presses the power button and calls
# /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh for further processing.
# Optionally you can specify the placeholder %e. It will pass
# through the whole kernel event message to the program you've
# specified.
# We need to react on "button power.*" and "button/power.*" because
# of kernel changes.
event=button[ /]power
action=/etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh
To save type Ctrl + O and hit enter
To exit type Ctrl + X
Edit /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh and add the following lines:
# If all else failed, just initiate a plain shutdown.
/sbin/shutdown -h now "Power button pressed"
Save , exit and type:
sudo service acpid restart

In addition, if you want to type a command, you can either go to tty by pressingCtrl+Alt+F1-F6and login, or start a terminal emulator on your desktop by pressingCtrl+Alt+T.
