Torches against shadows/wraithes?

Help please... Incorporeality says: Only magic weapons, spells, etc work... Holy water is explicitely mentioned.

Elemental damage such as fire from a torch (1 puny point) would not work? I thought I remembered some stuff from the 3.0 rulesbooks that said you could use torches against the incorporeal thingies...

SRD:

Spectres, wraiths, and a few other creatures lack physical bodies. Such creatures are insubstantial and can’t be touched by nonmagical matter or energy
