Let me recap, if you are under X your X power manager comes up and enables you to shutdown the system right? If not you get that error message in syslog and no reaction. Could you please check which value $1 has in that case statement in /usr/share/acpi-support/power-funcs? Or as root run ps wt tty`fgconsole` --no-headers and tell us the output. I'd like to figure out why getXconsole() doesn't work for you, it certainly does for me. One last point concerning pwf_error, if it did not exit, the system would shutdown even if the GUI power manager was running. I'm not sure if this is better.
