you can add a line in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local like:
modprobe apm
and from next time you boot, "halt" command will actually shutdown your pc.

root@overkill:~# modprobe apm
/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/apm.o.gz: init_module: No such device

You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

adrenaline you are a special case
I know some people having problems about their Toshibas but acpi=on worked for them.
did you give lilo command after adding all those things, maybe you are skipping it ?Just a Newbie....Looking 4 Info....

I always run /sbin/lilo to make sure there will be no errors so it will boot the next time.

what about looking at your bios?
both apm via rc.modules or via lilo should work.

Hey guys.. I had the same problem.. since I'm a little more experienced with Linux, I thought I might fill ya in how I got mine to work.
First of all.. your kernel needs ACPI support. bareacpi.i will work just fine.
Once you have that, just add this line to your /etc/lilo.conf file:
append="acpi=force"
then run /sbin/lilo (as root of course)
Oh yeah, you dont really need apm unless you're using a laptop.. so if you're not.. why load crap into memory?
Have fun fellow Slackers!

I just wanted everybody to know I finally fixed this issue and I wanted to thank everybody that tried so hard to help me on this.
I ended up reinstalling and this time I used the kernel with apci and it worked so thanks to everyone involved :rock:

A reinstall; thats must be the last solution (for Linux). But i think for you (because as i said before you are a unusual case) this should be done.
