Package: linux-source-2.6.18
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12
Severity: normal


I've tried recompiling the kernel , playing with ACPI options (kernel 
configurations and acpi= parameters) , but POWEROFF doesn't work.

When I do "shutdown -h now" the system starts powering off and then 
stops with the line :

acpi_power_off called

I've also tried the lastest mainline vanilla kernel 2.6.21.1 and I've 
got the same problem.

I've also tried powering off by APM and what I've got is a black screen 
after shutdown -h now finish to umounting the filesystems , but the 
system remains on (Fan spinning and the screen is black , but the LCD 
backlight is still on).

I will attach my dmesg in the next message .

Ok, please file separate bugs for these issues if necessary.
I'm closing this bug.

If you're running testing by now, running the tests with 2.6.24 isn't
really necessary. This is mostly a suggestion for people running Etch
on their systems.
