The following patch worked for Tribe 5.  Strange how Edgy and Dapper and
Puppy ... shutdown O.K. but Feisty and Gutsy Tribe 5 don't.  Maybe
there's a clue for you in what the fix may do.

Cheers, Jerry


"Shutdown" doesn't
This system powers off with Edgy, Dapper, Knoppix, ... but not Feisty. If I 
select Shutdown after a while nothing's happening, there's no message on the 
screen, and the keyboard and mouse are dead. Someone on some forum (where?) 
suggested:
Do sudo gedit /etc/modules. Add the following line, then save:
apm power_off=1
do sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst (where the l is a lower case L). Find the 
line that start with "kernel" and add this onto the end, no carriage return, 
all on the same line which probably wraps over:
acpi=off apm=power_off
then save. Power off however you can, power back up and on "Shutdown" it 
should. Mine did.
Usual cautions apply when changing system files.....
