4 What happens now when you press the power button? What does your syslog
5 say?

7 First of all, you need an ATX motherboard. (Any motherboard newer than
8 about 7/8 or so years ago). Then you need ACPI compiled into your
9 kernel, as well as `emerge acpid`.

11 Finally, if it still doesn't work, post what you see from
12 tail -f /var/log/messages
13 or whatever your syslog is, when you press the power button.

15 post back if that doesn't work!
