Hello! I've got an Acer Aspire 1200, with a CPU Intel Celeron, 368MB of ram and 20gb of HD, everything works well but I can't shutdown the notebook, if I press shutdown from the LXDE menu the notebook just halts, but doesn't power off, is it a problem of acpi? how can I fix it?

If you have 'exec startlxde' in your .xinitr, try changing it to 'exec ck-launch-session startlxde' . Shutting down with HAL doesn't really work well if you don't use ck-launch-session, though the documentation doesn't really explain why.

I'll try, but the power manager doesn't work well, I can't see the battery status...

To test if it's ACPI/kernel related, just run "poweroff" as root from a VT. If that hangs, it is. If it doesn't, then your problem is probably HAL/ConsoleKit/etc. related, and my first suggestion would be the same as guant's.
