Windows 95 (OSR2) calls it "APM 1.1". So does LInux (Slackware 3.4, kernel 2.0.33). According to the apm driver in 2.2.6-STABLE (checked out & built circa 980604), however: apm0 on isa apm: found APM BIOS version 14.0 > Also, have you updated to the latest BIOS for that > system? Yes. I have Toshiba BIOS v5.20 loaded on there. This is the latest, according to both the Web site and Tech Support (I called them). > Which FreeBSD version? I am running 2.2.6-STABLE, checked out and built circa 980604. Since I'm interested in getting to the bottom of this, I would be willing to try CURRENT on this machine if there are significant changes in APM between RELENG22 and CURRENT. > For the BIOS, see: > http://www.csd.toshiba.com/tais/csd/support/files/Flash_BIOS/100cv520.exe --- Donald Burr - Ask me for my PGP key | PGP: Your WWW HomePage: http://DonaldBurr.base.org/ ICQ #1347455 | right to Address: P.O.
