And you are sure ACPI is enabled in the kernel config?

I have the same problem on a Dell 6C server, and it doesn't have ACPI

If I "shutdown -h now" it goes thru the shutdown procedure and ends in
the exact same place " Power Down".
I wish I could figure it out, but no luck so far (I tried to put acpi=on
on the kernel boot line in Grub, but no luck.)

Do you mean "ACPI" maybe?
This usually means you don't have power management enabled. It's not
Linux specific. For example if you follow the recommendation on many
Windows audio web sites and install with the "Standard PC" HAL instead
of the "ACPI Uniprocessor PC" then you get the same behavior (PC will
not power itself down, you have to turn it off).
Enabling either APM or ACPI should do it. But, keep in mind that
enabling power management has caused latency problems in the past. It's
possible that these issues are solved with a recent kernel.

Hi all
I realise this is not the place to ask such a question but rather than
subscribing to yet another forum I ask first just in case.
I have demudi working now, all except it turning the machine off. It
goes to shut down the last line on the screen is Power Down but then
it just sits there. I have to physically turn it off.
any ideas?
not positive, but my son sometimes gets this .... have you got apic
enabled in the bios?
