Dear keith ,
Thanks for your advice.I have enabled START_APMD to yes in the rc config
and the daemon tries to initialise during bootup but I get an 'apm
kernel not enabled' during bootup.Also I appear to be missing an apm
mime when doing 'cat /proc/apm)
Both kernels I am using, the homemade and the suse one had apm enabled
so I am at a loss again..Maybe I should have installed something else as
well?

Do you have the apmd enabled in rc.config? If not, then apmd will not
load. You can edit this in YaST or with vi. If you edit with vi, make
sure to run SuSEConfig after to set everything up.
You should have two key processes running when apm is enabled.
kapm-idled (the kernel apm support) apmd (the apm daemon)
Good luck,
Keith

I am currently running suse 7.3 on a compaq pressario 1700 xl 569..I can't make advanced power management to work on my laptop..I have compiled a kernel with apm enabled and have installed the apmd daemon...Nevertheless when asked, the kernel I use (along with the orgiginal suse one) does not seem to have apm enabled/integrated into it ...I have read the man pages but cannot figure out why I cannot use apm..Any advice would be appreciated
