Laptop Power Control modules not showing up

["Bruce Best \(CRO\)" <bestb@lao.on.ca>]

I have KDE 2.1.1 from kde.debian.net running on Debian Potato 2.2r3 w.
kernel 2.4.4, XFree 4.02, on a P!!!-600 HP OmniBook 500 laptop w. 128MB RAM.
Works great, except that there are no laptop power control options in
KControl. I have enabled APM in the bios and in the kernel (as a module),
the module is loaded and apmd is installed and running. I read the help
files in KDE Control, and set apmd suid root, as directed. The laptop power
control option does not show up, whether logged in as root or as a user.
xapm works and accurately reports on current status. I haven't been able to
find any other details about what else needs to be installed to get the
laptop controls - does anyone know what else I should check, or what else I
might have missed?

I have already posted to the kde-user mailing list, but thought I'd try here
in case this was a debian-specific issue.
