Though this worked for me before, it appears to have stopped working and I don't think I reverted the code (sigh). Are you by any chance using something with apm in, or using it as a module and removing the module? The only difference here between working and non-working is that I've suspended and resumed the machine (/without/ power management / apm compiled in). > Alternatively, try the intel drivers. I am informed by someone who really should know that this /does/ work. -- Alex Bligh - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
