I can't shutdown the system from kde control panel or by shutdown -p now. 
The system halts but it wont shut down.
New install?
Did it used to work?
If a new install of Dfly, have you had any other OS previouly installed that 
honored shutdown of the hardware?

Although not with Dragonfly (newbie Dragonfly user...) once in while I have 
bumped into hardware that would have issues trying to turn the power off 
(have seen it with FreeBSD and Centos).
