try using mixer(8).. its included in the base install.  also see

Yes, I have a libretto.. but its a 50ct, I also remember having this
problem, strangely enough.. sound worked, but all the values in
"mixer" were broken and un-modifiable.. just gave errors when I
tried.  Anyway, it had to do with the way I added "pcm" and "sbc"
to my kernel config file.. here is my working line:

device          pcm0    at isa? irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x0

Please note that this may not work for you, since you have a 100ct,
but it is worth a shot (yes, anything I tried that included both
pcm and sbc was broken on the libretto, but the example I have
just given works great.)

However, I don't have much advice on the APM thread.. except, try
and get into the BIOS by holding the escape key during the earliest
stages of booting, to get a 'keyboard error' .. 

Anyway, I hope some of this helps.. the libretto is a wonderful
little machine that is unmatched in terms of portability and
seemingly hardware support, too ;)
