you can simply check that: just set some wakeup time in your BIOS (without
using   nvram-wakeup)   and   see   if  you  can  shutdown  your  PC  with
shutdown/poweroff.  If  not,  you  may  have  to experiment with different
kernel options (see APM and/or ACPI).

BTW.:  did  you  use  one  of the predefined mainboard settings or did you
create new settings yourself?
