I can't disable apm in the BIOS (doesn't have an option for it) but it's not enabled in the kernel - we were getting spurious signal 11's with apm on SMP machines several years ago, and the mailing list consensus back then was "apm is not for SMP". So either it's something else, or my BIOS is lacking an option. Lars -- Lars Eggert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> USC Information Sciences Institute
