Does this run without sudo> shutdown -r now

thanks for your reply! but could you please say something more about that? especially, how to configure that 😛

systemctl shutdown or systemctl reboot

#

understood. however, can we shorten this to shutdown and reboot, just like on Ubuntu, LM, LMDE etc?

#

you can always add alias "shutdown"="systemctl shutdown" and alias "reboot"="systemctl reboot" to your ~/.bashrc :)

I think it is systemctl poweroff

close enough 🤷

#

well, those commands also don't work without sudo

that's exactly what I want, but perhaps i have some issues

#

well, I got the desired result by editing the sudoers file user ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/poweroff, /sbin/reboot and creating aliases to run reboot instead of sudo reboot. but i feel it's not the best solution
