Moin, there is one issue with the newer debian kernels, as they have SMP enabled: as documented in bugs #376089 and #378323, apm poweroff does not work anymore.
A possible solution is to put ---- options apm poweroff ---- somewhere under /etc/modprobe.d/ and regenerate the initrd. IMHO it would be a good idea to enable apm poweroff by default (as it worked before, when there were separate uniprocessor kernels). The most obvious place to put this would be module-init-tools:/etc/modprobe.d/arch/i386 which is a bit hard to change now, as base is frozen... -- c u henning
