I use a Compaq Armada M700 laptop with the 2.4.18-686 kernel from
Woody. The machine power's off just fine if I load the APM module. Be
aware that ACPI is not compiled into this kernel.
I would suggest you download 2.4.18-686 and install it. It has worked
pretty nicely on this machine for a while now, and it will give you a
baseline kernel configuration to play with.
Cheers!
