What's "bootupdate"?

There are still some things you can try... one is issuing "shutdown -P 
now" instead "-h" and check if that works. You can also review if you 
have the proper acpi packages installed ("dpkg -l |grep acpi") and 
finally, if neither works, there are some parameters to tweak "acpi" 
settings that you can pass to kernel when booting, you may Google for 
that.
