The "ps" listing is :

--------------<snip>
root         4     1 32 21:13 ?        00:05:25 [kapm-idled]
root      1084     1  0 21:13 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apmd -p 10 -w 5 -W
--------------<snip>

What is this "kapm-idled"...and why is this _constantly_ and _consistently_ 
eating around 30-80% of my CPU resources... "apmd" is listed on the 4th line
from the last and using only 0.2 % of the resources... this is present even
when I'm in runlevel 3 on the console and KDE or X is _not_ running...

There is no mention of this in the /var/logs... (grep kapm * = Nothing)

If this is not necessary, how can I disbale this... Any clues...

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.  In practice,
there is.
