APM

I am running CURRENT and is experienceing something odd with apm. If I turn 
it off in the kernel, the battery behaves as I would expect it (basically 
it provides power wihle unplugged :) ), but then the sleep function doesn't 
work - obviously. Howevever, if I turn on apm support the sleep function 
works perfectly, BUT battery only lasts for around 5 minutes. This is also 
what apm reports as supported time. Under Win this battery lasts around 
2h...

I am running a Compaq M700. Logging during boot/suspend/boot is :

Jul 22 17:45:47 laptop kernel: apm0: <APM BIOS> on motherboard
Jul 22 17:45:47 laptop kernel: apm0: found APM BIOS v1.2, connected at v1.2

Jul 23 08:48:04 laptop apmd: resumed at 20020723 08:48:04
Jul 23 09:06:17 laptop apmd[241]: start


Is this a known problem?
