Hi Olaf,
the new lenovo laptops, like yours and mine, do not have APM support.
They are ACPI-only machines.
Forget about suspend. It'll take a while yet. Nevertheless, I have an
apmd set to -C and the fans kick in much less than they do on linux.
I have also tried setting apmd -f /dev/acpi but
I had the same problem. I solved it using
xterm-xfree86
but now I have a different one. I cannot use backspace to scroll up.
The error message is Key is not bound.
any idea of how to fix that?
