If it makes you feel any better, something similar happened to me somewhere around 2.4.7. The previous 2.4.x had worked fine, and the next release worked. But, when I booted the bad kernel, apm would appear to initialize fine in dmesg, but there wasn't a /proc/apm. -- Brian Nelson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bignachos.com
