So, is this a pristine 2.4.2? Or is it a RH patched one? I have just
looked at the differences in arch/i386/kernel/apm.c between 2.4.2 and
2.4.7. The only differences are in comments and to allow one more
kernel command line option. i.e. there is nothing that should make APM
behave differently.
Could you send me a diff between the two versions of apm.c, please?
