Bug#872038: Dell Vostro 1000 not powering down. (Debian 9)

[Aaron Valdes <aaron78valdes@gmail.com>]

I logged into the BIOS and found a setting PowerNow Control was enabled.

I disabled it and the laptop powers down completely now.  The reboot is working correctly too.

I edited /etc/default/grub and removed the "quiet"

I took some screenshots of where the system seems to be hanging the shutdown processes.  See pics attached.

I hope this helps.

Please advise what other steps I can take to gather information about if ACPI is failing somewhere.

I will try to find out what might have changed from Debian 8 to Debian 9.

Thanks
