I have a 7500 (wish I had the 8000 though). The APM support seems to work
flawless for me. Could you post your software config?
I do have some problems when running under XFree 4. I can only run the patched
XFree 3.3.6 linked from the linux-laptops site. If you run XFree 4 you won't
suspend correctly. I don't understand why. I haven't tried the latest XFree
4.0.2 I think. There are some significant fixes in there so maybe this would
solve my problem.
... currently it is running RedHat 7.0 but will soon be running Debian GNU/Linux
(yay!)
I am running:
Kernel 2.4.3 (all the APM combinations seem to work)
XFree 3.3.6 with the patched XServer to get the LCD to initialize
and everything is good... (2.4.3 seems slightly buggy when compared to 2.2.19
though)
