If you look at your .config file in the kernel source root directory there are a few options related to APM. Edit that file and look for CONFIG_APM. You may need to enable one or more of those additional options, e.g. check out CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF. It may also be a peculiarity of your BIOS. See if there's an available BIOS upgrade for your motherboard. If you still have a problem I can check my settings tonight when I'm at my Debian machine.
