Pass 'noacpi' to the kernel and apm should magically be supported by the kernel. If you look in /var/log/dmesg, you'll probably see something like this (quoting from mine): apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.16) apm: overridden by ACPI. So if you disable ACPI by passing 'noacpi' or 'pci=noacpi' to the kernel, then apm will stop being disabled. Blue skies...
