You load in the kernel (either by compiling or by modprobing) ospm_system and 
ospm_button. Then you compile acpid and compile the example script in 
/etc/acpi/events. It should call init 0 on the event "button power":

# This is a sample ACPID configuration.
event=button power.*
action=init 0

Greetings, Stephan
