First of all, shutting down the apmd completely works for testing. This can be done by "/etc/init.d/apmd stop". If you have an old SuSE version, it can also be /sbin/init.d/apmd or maybe also /etc/rc.d/apmd. If that works but you need the apmd for something else (ejecting pcmcia or stopping sound), search for the apmd config file. On SuSE systems, this is /etc/rc.config.d/apmd.rc.config. You should be able to figure it out by listing all files in the apmd package. I don't know how to do this on debian, but on an rpm-based system to "rpm -ql apmd" and look for a filename that could be the config file. In this file, you should find an option like "LEAVE_X_BEFORE_SUSPEND". Setting this to "no" solves the problem on my system. If you have a RedHat system, this posting might also interest you (the link on the dell site has changed, but searching for "linux and apm" on the main page will bring you there):
