Hi Andreas,
I had this problem on my notebook, too. It turned out that I set
CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF, but
forgot to set CONFIG_APM=y (it was "m"), so I either had to do "insmod
apm" or recompile the kernel. I apologise if you already looked into
this possibility, but you didn't provide more info.
Regards,
Alex
