Re: automatic poweroff - PROBLEM SOLVED
Awwwww right... Here it is:
I patched the 2.4.18 kernel with the latest acpi driver found at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpi/ .
Just for the record... I have a Asus CUV4x VT694Z motherboard with
bios revision 1010 beta 002.
Thanks a lot!!

ps. Anyone with the same board could chip in on this?
