I compiled last night a new kernel with apm... and almost works fine :-)))

suspend to disk:
-works via Fn-F12
-about two times faster than under linux (suspending and resuming) :-)
-if the sound modules are loaded after resuming the notebook makes an hugly
high frequency noise. it's necessary to unload sound modules first
-often the relogon at bios password doesn't work, hard reset is needed
-keyrate is to slow (like under linux), sometimes setting keyrate fails
(something like ioctl not supported)

suspend to ram:
-does not work (it does not work under linux also, because dirty apm/acpi
implementation of the notebook itself)

suspend does not work with apm -z/Z (like under linux), it works only with
Fn-F12


battery:
-apm shows the correct battery state, but the icewm seems to like only
linux. it can't show the battery state, time for an own applet or so ;-)
