Hello all I got it to work by turning ACPI on in my BIOS (Knoppix and Mandrake seem to handle to power off with an APM signal). I'm still trying to iron out the ACPI side effects, because my mobo doesn't like it entirely.
I will be asking some ACPI questions probably, but in a seperate thread. Thanks for all the answers.
