      Ok. So my pi was taking 4 min to shut off when I clicked my button on my controlblock. The PowerSwitch.cpp file had t -3. So I edited it to shut off now. I saved the cpp file via sudo nano PowerSwitch.cpp. Question. What do I do next to make it work. Compile it somehow? I don't know Linux. Editing the file did nothing. I think I'm missing a step. Anyone know? Thanks so much!!0

        you can re-run make to recompile the driver, followed by sudo make install and sudo make installservice.

        Alternative, you download and install the latest driver version. It has fixed the 3-4 Minute delay as well.
