I can't disable apm in the BIOS (doesn't have an option for it) but it's 
not enabled in the kernel - we were getting spurious signal 11's with 
apm on SMP machines several years ago, and the mailing list consensus 
back then was "apm is not for SMP".

So either it's something else, or my BIOS is lacking an option.
