Does anyone know the secret to getting Etch to power down the system

seem to have helped.

I know the hardware can do it, because it worked with the very old
version of Ubuntu I tried before Debian (5.04).

The machine is a Dell Precision 410 with new Etch netinst just done...

Hi Digby. Just an update. I found the the link to the bugreport for the
shutdown problem. It may, or may not resolve your problem, but is below.
