Yes, it works just fine. You have to have some options in a particular way, though. I use the following: CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC=n CONFIG_PM=y CONFIG_APM=m CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND=n CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE=y CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE=y CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK=y CONFIG_APM_RTC_IS_GMT=y CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS=n CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF=n If you use menuconfig, these are the corresponding options, respectively: Processor type and features -> Local APIC support on uniprocessors (n) General Setup -> Power Management support (y) General Setup -> Advanced Power Management BIOS support (m) General Setup -> Ignore USER SUSPEND (n) General Setup -> Enable PM at boot time (y) General Setup -> Make CPU Idle calls when idle (y) General Setup -> Enable console blanking using APM (y) General Setup -> RTC stores time in GMT (y) General Setup -> Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls (n) General Setup -> Use real mode APM BIOS call to power off (n) If you turn on CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC, then APM won't work. Oh, and note that APM will be a module, so make sure you load it (use modconf to configure that). Cheers, fabbe
