Ok, I found out that it does use acpi, and I need to have the battery and ac modules loaded. Is there anyway I can load these at system startup, instead of having to log in and type "modprobe ac && modprobe battery" ? On Saturday 08 March 2003 01:28 pm, Emcek wrote:

As you could read from my earlier email, I have tried what the DB says, with no avail. I placed "acpi=off apm=on" in the /boot/grub/menu.lst file for options on boot.
whoops, sorry Michael.
i had the same problem with my laptop and the advise from sdb was appropriate for me. i'm sure original suse kernel has compiled apm support in (see /boot/vlinuz.config).
i do not use grub (just after 8.1 installation i've replaced grub by well known by me lilo). maybe these option are not transferred to kernel? have you tried manually write append="acpi=off" during boot?

boot = /dev/hda change-rules reset read-only menu-scheme = Wb:kw:Wb:Wb lba32 prompt timeout = 80 message = /boot/message
