Well here is the rest of that story. First ACPI must be on in the BIOS
The acpid must be running from init.d script.

Now the strange part. When the system is booted check the lines in dmesg
for references to ACPI oor acpi. In my case there was a line that said
acpi was shuting down and I should try the lacpi opton for the kernel. I
did and it worked. I mean I put lacpi on the grub line for the kernel.
