I know you are trying to get a handle on the cli thing, but I am not to well versed in it. I would use mcc and boot then "set up how the system boots" and put an x in "enable acpi" box. In lilo it should show as something like acpi=yes or similar. HTH
You'll probably see my other post, but just wanted to say thanks. Rebooted and it works. Thanks
