    Do you get any kind of error messages? Please give more details...

    Have you a ATX power suply house?
    Do you use custom kernel?

    Yes, may pc have two operating system, Windows Xp Pro and Kanotix, When im booting to Win Xp, it goes find when im shutting down the computer, it does turn off automatically, but When im booting to Kanotix, It cannot turn off automatically, it just stop at "POwer Down"....
    Maybe, worst come to worst, i'll reinstall back the whole Kanotix things... , I dont know where i'm doing wrong, that's the main problem, worried that it will happen again after im doing back the reinstalling...

    Run
    Code:
    shutdown -h now > shutdown.log
    in order to log all messages during shutdown. Paste last 5-10 lines here to analyze.
