Seem that something has changed in 2.6.9 because it is not a problem
in
2.6.8 Because I can't poweroff the machine even the faq or other option sugguested apm=off acpi=off.... etc.
Why use 'apm=off?. I use 'acpi=off' (i.e apm=on) - and no problems with shutdown on a T40/FC3. But things could be different on T21/FC2.

It is fail to power off the machine.
I have a T40 - when I was running with ACPI on FC2 and FC3. I had frequent crashes (total machine freeze with wireless indicator flashing)
Since I switched ACPI off, it has become better - I still get occasional crashes where it logs me out and gets me back to the X11 login screen. I updated today, there was a new xorg update - it's behaving ok so far.
Best regards, Chris
