You don't meantion what kernel version you're using, but on my Woody
system with 2.4.x kernel's I found that I needed to add apm to my
"/etc/modules" so that the apm module is always loaded on boot.  Once the
apm module was loaded, the "shutdown -h" or "poweroff" command was capable
of powering off my ATX systems.
