Not really something I need to do right now, but how does one upgrade the kernel if not with dist-upgrade? > > What does > > $ cat /proc/version > > say? Linux version 2.2.17 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.95.2 20000313 (Debian GNU/Linux)) #1 Sun Jun 25 09:24:41 EST 2000 > What does > > $ cat /proc/cmdline > > say? Does it have "apm=on" in it? It says: auto BOOT_IMAGE=Linux ro root=301 This is even after I added: append="apm=on" To /etc/lilo.conf as someone suggested. I also ran lilo after making the edit as suggested in the config file. I also added apm to /etc/modules. Just for kicks I tried append="apm=1" and that didn't work, either. The weird thing is that if I look in the log, it says that apm is turned off at user's request: Nov 30 15:47:05 ruth kernel: apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x07 (Driver version 1.13) Nov 30 15:47:05 ruth kernel: apm: disabled on user request. I can't find any reference to apm in init.d or in lilo.conf (except for the line above). Thanks! Jen
