I posted a detailed description of using APM on a ThinkPad yesterday and almost all of it (excluding the ps2 references) are applicable to any system that has APM support. See "5.1b2, configuring kernel for ThinkPad x20" in the archives. It requires that the apm driver be loaded at boot time, not just a hit file change. (Though that is also required.) R.
