Here's the one I saved; there were followups: From: Joey Hess <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: 2.2.12 kernel apm To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Date: Thu, 7 Oct 1999 22:36:54 -0700 Resent-From: [email protected] I just installed kernel 2.2.12 on my laptop, and was having some trouble getting apm working. it said "apm disabled on user request" at boot time. Well, some grepping the kernel sources found that passing "apm=on" to the kernel at boot time enables it now. I can't find any record or docs of this change. This strikes me as potentially a very good change. Wouldn't it mean we can build apm into our stock kernels now? It will be off by default, but laptop users can turn it own w/o too much bother.
