This are very good numbers, which I've expected.

This should be easily solved.
I point on your distro's startup scripts. They only look if apm is enabled but _NOT ACPI...
Have a look into /etc/init.d/halt (taken from SuSE 7.3, LSB standard).
[-] case "$0" in *halt) message="The system will be halted immediately." case `/bin/uname -m` in i?86) command="halt" if test -e /proc/apm -o -e /proc/acpi ; then <----!!!! command="halt -p" else read cmdline < /proc/cmdline case "$cmdline" in *apm=smp-power-off*|*apm=power-off*) command="halt -p" ;; esac fi ;; *) command="halt -p" [-]
Expand the marked line with acpi like above.
