APM or KDE stupid bug, i guess...

[Paulo Lopes <pmml@netvita.pt>]

Hi,

I've a Clevo 2700C and installed woody on it, and all stable packages 
from security.debian.org and new kernel and XFree from 
http://www.fs.tum.de/~bunk/packages/.

I've compiled the kernel 2.4.20 and the bug is this:

When i'm on batery power, everytime the KDE starts the PowerSavings
the laptop just hangs, the image freezes, and even if i try i can't 
switch to text mode.

This problem probably isn't related with this kernel, i've tryed 2.4.18 
with the same configuration and it hangs.

The stupid thing is that, when i'm on AC power, it never crashes

This is very stupid, why do i need a laptop if i can only use it when 
i'm on AC power :-) I think it worked fine with older kde versions such 
as 3.0.3, not shure with 3.0.4. Currently i have 3.0.5a.

Can this be a bug in my BIOS? i'm using the 1.13 version.

Thanks for your time
