First testrun today:
2 PCs never powered off after shut down
- with noapic,nolapic
- without noapic,nolapic
always with sudo su - as root
shutdown -h now

sudo shutdown -h now
didn't power off.

GUI shutdown directly from login screen power off. tested once...

1 PC powered off from GUI shutdown directly from login screen once,
 but tested it again it waited with "power down" line....
This one didn't power down with
sudo shutdown -h now

4 PCs powered off after shutdown via
sudo shutdown -h now

but didn't shut down as root with
shutdown -h now
and also not in runlevel 1...

So it seems to me that if I'm lucky it powers off...
this can't be real...

thinking and hoping for solution
