Then from what I see you did not run lilo after you changed it so I would open lilo.conf in your favorite editor, make sure that append="apm=on" is there, save it and then run lilo. If you then do shutdown -r now as su or root the system will reboot. The next time that you shutdown your laptop, it should shutdown correctly. If memory serves me correctly, I did not have to load a apm configured kernel on my system for this procedure to work. HTH Don
