I agree with you, but I know some people don't like to write the hardware clock on shutdown or suspend; perhaps the apm package maintainer thinks this way. Anyway, with your script the system will do the same thing when init/resume or shutdown/suspend. > One last thing I don't understand: Where is apmd's config file?

You can use some options on the command line, and you can do some things changing the /etc/apm/apmd_proxy script; take a look at this file and the apmd manual page. -- David
