Usually a short press is a signal to the operating system to cleanly shut down itself and then turn power off[*], while a long press bypasses the os and cuts power directly. If the short press (or an equivalent "shutdown -h now") doesn't cut power, it's probably because you (or your distribution) didn't setup apm/acpi (whichever works best with your mb) correctly. [*] actually you can do whatever you want with the power button, I configured it to send an "hitk power" command through svdrp.
