Hello,

When running 'poweroff' my system does not power off. The last line
printed on the screen is "acpi_power_off called". My grub/menu.lst file
has no kernel options related to acpi or apm. After having searched the
net, I have also tried the following four different kernel option
combinations:

acpi=off apm=on
acpi=off apm=real-mode-poweroff
acpi=ht
apic=ht

but none of them makes the system power down. For the first two of
these, the last line printed on the screen was "System halted". I
think that was the case for the last two as well.

It is interesting that the system managed to power off one time using no
grub/menu.lst kernel options, after having tried one of the acpi/apm
options above on a previous boot, and then pressed the reset button.

Power off was working on this machine a a couple of years ago, also
running Debian (maybe Sid), with an earlier 2.6 kernel.

My motherboard is an ASUS A7S333, with the newest BIOS version
(rev1006), and AMD Athlon XP2200+. The software is Debian Etch from
today. Thus I have kernel version 2.6.18-3-k7. Both 'acpid' and 'apmd'
are installed.

The ACPI related messages in the kernel log are:

I use the 'halt' command in three different debian machines. It always
worked for me. Did you try it?



Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, both the 'halt' and the 'shutdown -h now' commands give the same results, as does the 'Turn off computer' option when choosing "Log out.." on the KDE menu.

My two other Debian machines have have no problem shutting down. They both use ACPI with no special kernel boot parameters.

Best regards,
