On the same subject ...
I don't have any apm module either but apmd deamon is
running like this:
root 3 1 0 Apr26 ? 00:00:00
[kapmd]
root 775 1 0 Apr26 ? 00:00:06
/usr/sbin/apmd -w 10 -v -P /usr/sbin/apmd_proxy
What is kapmd for? I'd have one more question. I
modified /etc/sysconfig/powermanagement the way eth0 &
eth1 should be restarted upon suspend/resume. It
worked for a while but now whenever I wake up my
laptop I always have the old IP ... at home I still
have my office IP and in office I have my home one, so
I have to do ifdown eth0 & ifup eth0. This fixes the
IP issue but I have to ifdown eth1 (wireless) before I
ifup eth0 as otherwise I don't get default gateway
installed at all. This is really annoying.
Does anybody knows any trick to get around this?
Thx, Martin

Can you at least load the battery module? Type at a command prompt "modprobe ac && modprobe battery". Or better yet, add them to your /etc/init.d/boot.local file, so they load at boot time. Then check your power management. This was all I needed to do for my laptop.
Stll the saga continues -- with ACPI disabled I am still unable to get power management. Boot message says cannot find the module for APM ( whether it be built in to the kernel or not that is the error message ). Interestingly, now that have had the machine running for a few days I find quite frequently that the cooling fan will start up for no apparent reason when the machine is just sitting doing nothing ( and not connected to a network ) -- I assume that this is part of the same problem.
