That probably will not work. My brother disabled the
apm daemon in linux not advanced power management in
his BIOS. I had to do BOTH to make mine work.
The easiest way I know to disable the apmd is to open
DrakConf, click startup services and uncheck the box
by apmd. It won't take affect until the next time you
boot however.
