Maybe you are compiling a wrong power manager into the kernel. Whether
you have APM or ACPI depends on you BIOS. If you do not have ACPI

I did.
No more shutdown problems!
No kernel recompile needed.
I didn't even need to mod any config files.
Thanx a lot!

Also, if you want the machine to power down by itself on a 'shutdown

Done. Change nothing even with apm power_off=1 in /etc/modules

acpi is a new standard in power management that is more under the
control of the OS than the bios. if acpi is enabled, you should have

At kernel compiling, in the General setup section:

with VIA kt133a chipset, that setup reboots my machine, doesn't shut it down

With a generic kernel (I installed Potato, used apt to upgrade

Yep. If you enable SMP on kernel, you also need "apm=power-off".

Akop,
I had the same problem... there is a line in
lilo.conf that says # APPEND="" sorry not sure about
the = after it. If you change it to APPEND="apm=on"
save it then you need to type lilo so that lilo.conf
will update. Remember to remove the # and the space
before APPEND.

You need to enable apm support on startup - from memory, just add:
-apm
to the LILO startup line and it should work.

With an ATX computer (almost all new computers are ATX and have ATX
power supplies, ATX cases, and ATX mainboards) the power button is
connected to the mainboard instead of the power supply. This gives the
operating system the ability to do things like sync the disks before the
