If I have logged in as root, <alt><ctrl><del> brings up the little menu 
allowing me to shutdown ok; halt in console freezes with icewm background, 
then <alt><ctrl><del> reboots.
If I have logged in as normal user, then su, shutdown just freezes the 
keyboard, everything else works and I can load apps from the menu or logout 
and start again with keyboard working; but su, halt does the same as halt 
by root above.
Reboot works ok in all situations.
I would like a normal user to be able to shut down using su and then halt 
or shutdown.
Is this possible?
TIA
Andrew
