[ltp] ACPI & APM Confused

[Daniel Jimenez]

Hi all,

I'm confused. What exactly is the difference between ACPI and APM?

I am currently using 2.6.2 with ACPI enabled and I am able to shutdown 
my machine using shutdown -h now.

I am unable to suspend my machine (to memory or to disk), or press the 
power button and have it shut down.

I am able to control my processor speed using cpufreqd and it works 
great (I don't think that's related to ACPI or APM though).

Thanks!,
