If you want to use APM, then yeah, APM has to be enabled. Whether you
need to go do something to your config and rebuild depends on where you
got your kernel from and how it was configured. I ran Immunix 7.3 on my
TP 770, and APM just worked out of the box. Yeah that is my product, but
trust me, my engineers were not aiming at my laptop when they built it :)
