| I have a Compaq Armada E500 and the apm support doesnt work. It seems that

APM is disabled by default in device.hint
You need to change /boot/device.hints to comment the line that disables apm:
#hint.apm.0.disabled="1"

Also, you need this in your kernel
device pmtimer
and add this to boot/device.hints:
hint.pmtimer.0.at="isa"
