That's a simple power manager reset, which is typically needed after the
IBR-Emmpathy polka needed to ressurect batteries.
It is in TIL 14449, available at Apple's web site (which covers all powerbooks
and ibooks). For the 540 the procedure is:
1. Remove the AC adapter and the battery.
2. Let the PowerBook sit without power connected for 3-5 minutes.
3. Simultaneously press and hold Command-Option-Control-Power On for 5-10
seconds.
4. Reinstall the battery and, if necessary, reconnect the AC adapter.
