If your current setup works, you don't need to know anything about your
hardware.  Just keep hitting enter when running "make config" until near
the end when it comes to APM.  Just turn it on and keep hitting enter,
then

   make dep;make clean
   make modules
   make modules_install
   make zlilo
   reboot

and you should be fine.  You'll probably want to get the apm (apmd?)
package.
