I run debian, and whenever I shutdown, the system does not turn off. The last message on the screen is "Power off", and then the system just sits there (as with a normal halt). I have a Tyan tiger100 m/b, SMP, and I know it supports power-off ;) ( and I have the power-off option enabled in the kernel ... )
Any ideas? I know that some apm stuff isn't good to use with SMP .. could that be the reason ?
