Have you tried using 'shutdown -h -P now' ?
No.
I was having similar issues with some machines not powering down after
shutdown and that solved it for me. In my case, I simply set that as the
exit command for my window manager, and I have no idea how you might go
about doing it in a desktop env.
You'd type the command in an xterm and press enter.
Actually I think in gnome you could just create a little launcher (or
something), for example. Well, at least in the old gnome everyone
regrets you could.
Thank you, at any rate. I'll experiment with the -P flag later this
evening.
