I managed to get it to work. It seems neither of the entries make any difference. The only thing that I think matters is to get the apmd to load with the correct apmd.conf file and ofcourse taking out the disable in the kernel file as you stated. I had to play with the BIOS and change it from Sleep to Suspend. I can swear I have read articles to the contrary, however, it works :-) Thanx again for the help.
