Re: APM problems

- do you have apmd running? You can turn that off by doing 'service apmd stop' and 'chkconfig apmd off'

- apm=off can be passed to the kernel at boot time

- any messages in the logs? Are you sure it's apm that's causing it to sleep and not just some weird bug downing the machine?

Re: APM problems

1)chkconfig --list apmd

2)To disable apmd:
chkconfig --level 23456 apmd off

apmd intended for notebooks and laptops mostly.
Note! chkconfig is RedHat specific,wouldn't work on another linuxes.

Re: APM problems

Hello!

First of all you can disable it in the bios.
Then also stop the deamon of apm by
chkconfig apmd off (will off for the running level)
