Doesn't matter, since having APM disabled means it's disabled. If it's disabled, it's not found by *ANY* means > I think the APM VM86() call will detect this because it uses > BIOS-specific code that knows about the CMOS setting, but the > non-VM86() code ignores the CMOS setting (which can cause other, > interesting problems, like being able to suspend, but the laptop > not waking up on an event that should result in a "resume"). Not. We used to use our own VM86 switcher to do the probe earlier, and Mike converted to use the GENERIC VM86 switcher. If it worked before, it *should* work now (modulo any bugs, which is essentially the problem the poster is pointing out).
