Alas It doesn't work:
(1)	After boot, an alert window tell:
	UNABLE TO CONTROL PROCESSOR FREQUENCY
of course, if acpi, is disabled
(2)	The final shutdown message, usually "acpi_power_off called"
is replaced by;
	"Power down"

and the Power is still on util I press the pwr on button for >5 sec.

Thank you anyway
