Haven't had much time to look into it.

to restore the network connection.
I have some glitches that were also present (or worse) using apm. I would assume
all this works much better on newer hardware.

both even though they are not supposed to work together.
I'm interested too, in other's opinions/explanations of this phenomenon.

  apmd_enable="YES"
kldstat

 51 0xc169 17000linux.ko
So apm.ko is not loaded. However everything works. I got to this configuration
by accident (i.e., I forgot rc.conf). 'apm -l' works, 'apm -z' works and I can
resume okay.
