RE: compile with ACPI

Well,
   I looked more into the spec file. It is using the config file in the SOURCES dir. 
SOURCES has a bunch of config files one for each architecture. So I tried modifying
the config file for my arch(i386 I suppose) to turn off APM and on ACPI. Somehow, it 
is not considering my changes and doing APM. Any ideas? 
   My doubt is, my processor is i686 but the RPM that is being created by rpmbuild is
kernelversion.i386.rpm. So I tried modifying the config file for i386 arch. I think
it might be looking into some other file, may be i686 config file. 

Any ideas about this?

Yes, you have to modify the spec file. Mandrake has a good page on doing
this, search for cooker rpm howto.
