Description Pierre Thibaudeau 2004-06-22 01:41:53 UTC
Hi there,

apm was fully supported in Fedora Core 1 which is no longer the case
in Fedora Core 2. I have upgraded to the latest kernel 2.6.6-1.435 but
to no avail:

   $ apm --suspend
   No APM support in kernel
   $ uname -r
   2.6.6-1.435

Nothing in the release notes about this. Did I miss something during
the installation?

Cheers

ACPI overrules APM for your system. You need to either disable acpi
(by putting acpi=off on the kernel commandline) or use the acpi way of
suspending (echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep)
