Those with problems powering off cleanly need
to be very clear what kernel they are working with
and what boot flags are involved.   Looking at the
diffs on a FC2 tree this area is changing quite a lot
and any confusion on the involved code will slow getting
a fix.

One area of change is.
   ....drivers/acpi/hardware/hwsleep.c
Knowing exactly what kernel will let
developer folk know what code is active.

Also, Try including this info in the reports and postings.

     egrep -i "apic|acpi" /var/log/dmesg
     egrep -i 'kernel command line' /var/log/dmesg
     uname -a

If I am as current as I hope I am the current kernels are:
	  FC2 is 2.6.9-1.6_FC2
	  FC3 is 2.6.9-1.681_FC3
