Please read the first post: it is not a problem of command (shutdown,
halt, etc) but it is a problem with the graphical procedure in Gnome
when I hit the Stop button in System/Stop.
The system doesn't start the Stop procedure, it continues to run:
after re-running procedure, systems power-off correctly. It started
happening recently, I don't know exactly when...all 3 systems are
fully updated
The problem of not powering off has been solved in the past thanks to Aaron

Tnx
