As an added data point, since the OP seems concerned about Athlon XP2600+,
I am running that processor in an ASUS A7N8X2.0 Deluxe m/b ACPI BIOS Rev
1008
and it powered down just fine following the CentOS 5.2 upgrade. Here's
the first stanza of grub.conf:
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.1.el5)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5 ro root=LABEL=/
initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.img
