[Ed Novak <1499556@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I recently tested this with the latest ubuntu 16.04 beta 2 image and I
have the same behaviour.

I've also tested with several variants of the acpi kernel parameter
including acpi=off, acpi=strict, and acpi=oldboot  none changed the
behaviour except for acpi=off.  When this parameter was set, I was able
to press the power button to shutdown but the system shuts down
_immediately_ and I'm fairly certain the OS hasn't even flushed to disk
yet, so that's not a good workaround.

Title:
  Computer Reboots Instead of Halting

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  With Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, everytime I try to shutdown my system reboots instead. I have tried a variety of shutdown methods including:
  sudo init 0
  sudo shutdown -P now
  sudo shutdown now
  sudo shutdown -h now
  sudo shutdown -H now
  sudo shutdown -HP now
  (all previous variants with "now" replaced with "1")
  shutting down via the KDE menu (clicking the menu, clicking 'leave' section, clicking shutdown in the dialog box).

  The system hard shuts down if I hold the power button for 5 seconds.

  I have attached a zip of my entire /var/log directory.
