hi,
last year i reported this bug on bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=132761
with 2.6.10-1.727 i have the same problems:
ACPI_POWER_OFF CALLED is the last message - to power
of the machine - I pressed for 5 sec the power off buttom.
grub.conf boot option | booting | power off
=======================|=========|==========
| yes | no
--------------------------------------------
apm=power_off acpi=off | no | no
--------------------------------------------
apm=power_off acpi=on | yes | no

acpi=off | no | no
Have you tried booting with acpi=on within the kernel? The 2.6.10 kernel
works and powers off my computer with that option. I believe that
putting in no option does the same as specifying acpi=on. I add it to be
safe. (if acpi is disabled by default again)
For options to shutdown the computer, did you try issuing the command
poweroff, hiting the power button once and letting the computer shutdown
or shutting down via the GUI choice.
I have not tried shutdown -h now lately. The last time that I specified
that option, the computer did not shut off the computer, thus I changed
to simply using the poweroff command.
Probably no help, but just an idea.
