system doesnt power off after shutdown

[Aroon Pahwa]

hey again all,

when i choose to shut down ubuntu, everything shuts down fine but when
all is done it just sits there and never actually powers off.  it does
say power down so i just have to switch off the computer manually.

im assuming my acpi settings are not correct?  im running hoary final
on a p3 850 and some random gateway motherboard that im assuming is
running the intel bx440 chipset.

anyone know what i need to change, what i should change it to, and how
i should change it?

thanks!
