Running latest edgy, as of Wed, 23 Aug 2006 22:35:52. The problem is still present when shutting down from both a gnome session and from the gdm login screen (without having logged in). That is, system shuts down but does not power down the system.
The kernel bugzilla bug# 6431 mentions X being a culprit, so Xorg.log is included in attached logs. -- Power down after shutdown does not work... https://launchpad.net/bugs/43961 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
