I think I've searched half the internet and finally read this post. At first, I didn't believe a BIOS update would help. But I've tried so many things (another distro, with battery, without battery) and then (just before almost getting desperate) I finally gave the BIOS update a try, too. My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5610 (Aspire 5611-300, Intel Core Duo T2050).
I've updated the BIOS about two months ago and since then, the laptop didn't power off immediately. Yeah! :-) If someone has the same laptop: I've flashed to BIOS version V3.60, 1.7 MB as of 2008/12/08 (yes, more than one year old). So many thanks for this bug report and hint!
