Wow! Thanks N III and Cedric. That really really worked. It was in the alex-ab repo. It seemed like a rather immediate poweroff though - like I threw the light switch. Of course, that prolly explains this gem:
<!-- Note: power down your persistent Gendo applications & VMs beforehand on your own ! -->
So, if I'm tracking it means that if I run stuff on disk and want to shut down, I have to kill everything running on a persistent medium plus any VMs before sending the reset or poweroff signals? Off to do more studying - how does one get the environment to reestablish, something Norman said is ringing a bell...
Later,
Will

The below works on my T430 It only works thanks to acpica though, there are other components that monitor for "state=..." changes (platform_drv and ps2_drv if memory serve) but they only handle reset, they do not handle poweroff.
Go to leitzentrale, check that acpica is listed ; if not, find the download in one of the depots, as noted by HN yesterday Once it runs, check the Log for error messages at the time you set power-off.
I'm running a (customized) Genode 22.08, so it's also possible there was a regression between then and now, with Sculpt 22.10, explaining why it works for me but not for you. If so, you'll want to file a ticket.
