APM Trouble

I have a thinkpad 560, 133Mhz, 40MB RAM and 2 GB HD
When I have just booted my machine, I am able to issue the command apm --suspend, the machine suspends, and will also resume normally.  However, if I go into X-Windows, this command will not execute.  It does try, but the 'suspend' light on the keyboard just blinks, the machine holds up for a couple of seconds, then just resume normally.  After quitting X-Windows, I still cannot suspend the machine.  Any Ideas?  I've also tried to restart apmd, without luck.


TIA,
Marius.
