I am currently running archlinux with kernel version 2.6.37.5. The asus_laptop module is also loaded. When I turn the laptop off it prints "Power Off" then hangs. Reboot works and all other acpi features appear to work (both the files in /proc/acpi and whatever conky hooks into). Archlinux users reported that installing 2.6.38.2 from the testing repos fixed their problems, but they did not fix mine. I also use the acpi_call module to write raw acpi calls so I can turn off the nvidia gpu when in linux (which is a giant power savings) but I have made sure that this module does not get loaded incase there was any interaction there. If this isn't a known/fixed issue, is there a way for me to debug this more directly? Either increasing the verbosity of the powerdown, increasing the verbosity of what the kernel prints or even running gdb.
