I assume you use a standard debian kernel. These have apm (Advanced Power
Management) compiled as modules. You have to load this module inorder to shut
down the computer via software. As root, do
echo "apm" >> /etc/modules
and after the next reboot the apm module will be loaded by default. The
computer will (most likely) shut down the next time you type init 0.

PS.: If you are a newbie, you should head over to
http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/, as many newbie-ish (and many
not-so-newbie-ish) questions are answered over there. Also, please use a
subject line that is somehow related to your question. In this case, you
could have written "Computer does not power off" or something like that. This
helps people who try to help you a lot.
