I compiled a kernel with the apm0 device driver on my TI 4000 laptop
this evening and on bootup the kernel complaines apm0 not found. I'm
told that my laptop has Intel/Microsloth APM but I don't know which
version it is. (I think 1.0 but I'll know tommorow when I convert the
APM spec from MicroSloth Word format...) In any case, the kernel that
I compiled didn't work but the driver is marked "experimental" Is this
driver working and is my laptop non-conformant or is this driver in
need of some tweaking?
C.
