Everything was fine and dandy until all of a sudden the APM decided to stop working. Whenever I type "apm" or "apmconf" from the command line, I get a message like "can't open /dev/apm" (sorry, I can't remember the exact message and I don't have my laptop handy. I even get this message as root. /dev/apm exists and everything else seems okay. Any suggestions? Thanks, -kevin kykim@access.digex.net
