Are you shure that power down is supported by your bios? On rather old hardware it might not be supported at all. Then you just have to turn the switch by hand.

It worked with Win98, Red Hat and Libranet.

Well, as I said earlier, in my case it didn't work with the debian 2.6.8-kernel. My notebook worked with Suse, so I just installed a newer kernel:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a
Linux johannes2 2.6.12-johannes2 #1 Sat Nov 5 15:19:13 CET 2005 i686 GNU/Linux

...maybe it's a problem with 2.6.8 or Debian's version of it.
