if i understand you correctly, you want to turn off the ATX enable
computer. for that apmd should be enable. otherwise the computer's
power won't turn off.

| 
| One of my boxes are using a mb with a VIA PLE133T chipset.
| In the BIOS I have ACPI enabled and the box is set to wake
| up at 06:00 in the morning. I am using a disk drawer to
| easily change operating systems.
| When I am using a disk with Windows 2000 or Linux and 
| turn the box off at night, it will turn back on at 06:00
| as expected. When using the disk with R4.7p4 and doing a
| shutdown -p the box will not turn itself on the next 
| morning!
| I realize that the ACPI functions are not fully implemented
| yet, but I fail to see how it should influence a cold
| boot. Any ideas?
| What I am attempting is to have the box turn on, do its
| thing and turn itself off until the next morning.
| Kjell
