Shutting down and rebooting problem

Hi,

I don't know why but before, when I would shut down my computer I would get something like this:

---
System shutting down, please wait ...
---

Initializing shutdown...
*And here would be this list of everything that needs to be closed first*

Sometimes it would be like this:

Arch Linux (Core Dump) 2.6.27-ARCH (abakus) (vc/1)
abakus login:
Initializing shutdown...
*and here the list of everything again*

So, sometimes I would get a mix of login screen and shutdown screen? I noticed it usualy happened after I installed something new... but eventualy it would get back (somehow) to the shutdown screen only, without having this first two lines of login screen...
BUT (there's allways this but ), in the last few days, it's the mix of shutdown and login screen every time. Tried to fix it, but I don't get it what else could I try and do. I think it maybe might have something to do with some daemon not getting down corectly when it should, but I don't know how to find out which one it is...

So if anyone knows what could I do, please help
thnx
