Does acpi=off work? Documentation/x86_64/boot_options.txt suggests that's what you're supposed to use. Otherwise, you could always recompile your kernel without it compiled in... It doesn't look as though x86_64 kernels support APM: there's no option in make *config to turn it on as far as I can see. Hope this helps, James. -- E-mail address: james | Banana in disk drive error @westexe.demon.co.uk |
