I figure you use kdm as Display Manager, because "Turn off the
computer"
is what is offers as a choice when you select "Shutdown".
To set it up properly, run kcontrol, select "System Administration",
then "Login Manager", then "Shutdown". Go into Administrator Mode and
correct the command for "Halt" to "/sbin/halt -p".
Yes, it was simply a matter of issuing the -p switch
thank you Helge, for spotting the kdm reference and giving the easiest
method for fixing the problem
