This is on both a linux from scratch system and a Red Hat system, both of which have been known to power down before (with a different kernel). It still might be my .config, although a config that produces a kernel that powers down for suspend but won't power down on halt, on three radically different systems (dell, toshiba, sis)... I'll thump on it some more later.
