I have apmd running, and have always ran this on the desktop machine for
power management support.  It does, and has always started up normally.
Just out of curiosity where did you find that it is for laptops only?

I do have to admit that I never put the machine into full suspend mode.  I
could attempt this, and report the results to the group.

apmd supports laptop power management only. It causes problems on
desktops with ACPI, which is why ACPI has been added to kernel 2.4.

If you are running apmd, is it starting normally?

More like the other way around.
