Hello.
Since I converted one box to Debian 3.0 I'm getting strange errors related to APM.
When I push the power button (or do "apm -s") the box suspends normally. But it comes back almost immediately with this error:
APIC error on CPU0: 00(40)
I grepped the kernel source and found that "40" means reserved APIC error. What does that mean exactly ? BTW: I enabled "local APIC on uniprocessors" but this behaviour also appears without enabling that option.
Strangely this error won't appear with Redhat 7.2 and earlier versions. (I've never had any problems.)
$ dmesg:
Local APIC disabled by BIOS -- reenabling.
Found and enabled local APIC!

Mikael Pettersson submitted a patch which fixed that for me, its
definately in 2.4 mainline. Which kernel is in Debian 3.0?

apm is disabled per default on Debian's default kernel config. I compiled 2.4.17 myself which is running now.

Hm... That's strange. When I disable serial console on ttyS0 (in inittab) linux will suspend correctly. Although this APIC error on CPU0: 00(40) appears though. Also my one and only fan in my power supply spins down completely. So the box will get quite hot after some minutes in standby mode... Maybe a hardware problem...
Thanks anyway. ;-)
