Briefly, I have an Athlon MP 2000+ Asus A7M266-D (Dual CPU) system:
Here's the dmesg (this may also provide other info on other errors)
When I run /sbin/poweroff it also dumps to console that it had one
preempt left (I forgot the actual message it outputs).
The problem is this:
When I run the halt/poweroff program, it powers off the hard disks, and
displays the 'Poweroff System' message. If I press the power button, It
turns the system off HARD, Ie, i don't see the NIC card's aux power on,
and when I try to turn the machine on again it won't until I physically
remove all power (turn off powerbar) for a few seconds, then It will let
me power it on (or it will power on itself).
This did not happen in the 2.4.x kernel, I assume a new ACPI bug? ;-)
Shawn.

I'm heartened to see that ACPI PCI IRQ routing and CPU/IOAPIC enumeration is
working on your system. ;-)
2.4 ACPI is very different from 2.5 ACPI. You can try the latest ACPI patch
against 2.4 at http://sf.net/projects/acpi .
I bet it will do the same thing, though. I'll have to think about why this
might be happening.
