I've been putting this off for a couple weeks now. When I first installed FC4-x86_64 a couple months ago, my pc powered down with no problems. Now, after about 4 kernel upgrades using yum, my pc won't power down by itself. acpid is running. Any ideas?

When I installed 64 bit OSs on this AMD Athlon 64 I saw that the clock was moving twice as fast as usual and that the konsole in KDE would spit out multiple characters when I only wanted one letter (su resulted as ssuu). I read on the Slamd64 board that a noapic switch was needed in /etc/menu.1st. I added that in FC4 and it worked on the clock and shutdown from GUI:
Now if I remove this noapic switch it will shutdown with newer kernels but the clock is fast and KDE's terminal is hyper. I also tried halt -p and shutdown -h now from CLI with the same result....I press the power button on the pc for a couple seconds. Currently I am using kernel 2.6.13-1.1532_FC4.
