About 6 years old: Dell Dimension XPS B733.  Flipping through the BIOS 
setup screens, all I see in power management is power saving options 
for fan, HD, video...no reference to the acronyms you mention.

(In case it sheds any light, the SuSE system that was OK with shutting 
down this same computer featured kernel version 2.4.21.)
