Can I build both ACPI and APM into my kernel, and then choose which I
want to use with kernel boot-up parameters or some such option? (e.g.
apm=on, or something like that?)

Thanks, but I'd think it would need at least the config file? (I always
read about "configured kernel source tree"...) Or this maybe just in
some case
so I suspect
it could be simple. (E.g. recompile kernel with *proper* disabling of
PCMCIA?)

Judging from the fact that your query was sent to debian-laptop, I'd
assume you have a pcmcia network card, in which case you should also have
a look at /etc/pcmcia/network.opts... though that is for potato. I'm not
