As suggested, I added:
apm=power-off
to the kernel line of my grub menu.lst file and now I can power off. I almost
jumped when the machine snapped off - my bloody monitor doesn't go dark when it
loses signal it lights up with an RGB test pattern (TTX - don't buy one).

Nope. If they're both in the kernel, APM wins.

Good point. I never tried w/ APM in kernel and ACPI as module. Just
both in and ACPI in / APM module. (And that last was only due to

If I have ACPI enabled but not APM, when I do "sh
