Hello,
Apm doesent seen to work on my compaq laptop. Look:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# modprobe apm
/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/apm.o: init_module: No such
device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/apm.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/apm.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.18-686/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/apm.o: insmod apm failed
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
Thanks
Fernando
