Hi All-

As I reported earlier, my HP Omnibook 900's will panic instantly
when I use the apm command; however, the function keys seem to
work just fine.

Relevant bits from dmesg:

chip5:<Intel 82371AB Power management controller> rev 0x02 on pci0.7.3
apm0 on isa
apm: found APM BIOS version 1.2

from kernel config file:

device		apm0	at isa?

(It didn't make any difference if I had the flags 0x31 on or off)

I have apm_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf

If I type apm at the command line:

Fatal trap 9: general protection fault while in kernel mode
instruction pointer	= 0x48:0x41e4
stack pointer		= 0x10:0xf52cacc4
frame pointer		= 0x10:0xf52cacc4
code segment		= base 0xf00f0000, limit 0xfffe, type 0x1b
			= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 0, gran 1
processor eflags	= interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0
current process		= 240(apm)
interrupt mask		=
trap number		= 9
panic: general protection fault


Is there anything that I can/should do to further help?  I'd really
like my users to be able to use xbatt, so they don't ruin their
batteries.   I didn't see anything very similar in the gnats database.
I also haven't seen any recent changes to the apm code.

Thanks
S
