Description Rogelio Noriega 2000-08-03 19:21:31 UTC 
On a Dell Inspiron 5000, using the apm command causes a segmentation fault.
Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2000-08-04 09:07:40 UTC 
Works for me without problems on a Gericom 3xC...
What do you get when you run

strace apm

?

Attached is output of "strace apm".
Comment 3 Mick Tantasirikorn 2000-08-07 16:15:46 UTC 
so, what was the solution?
Comment 4 Alan Cox 2000-08-18 18:08:32 UTC 
Please check 'dmesg' output after the segmentation fault and attach any oops
Comment 5 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2000-08-23 19:06:32 UTC 
Looks like a broken APM bios...
If it's a bug at all (I don't think it is), it's a kernel problem.
Comment 6 Michael K. Johnson 2000-08-23 20:27:37 UTC 
I'm deferring this until we get the information Alan requested.
