Hi Bret-

Unfortunately, as I went through the available bios updates, APM would
simply not work for me any longer on my T23.  I gave it a very good shot
since it works so well on my Dell Inspiron.  On my thinkpad, I decided
that I needed to start learning how acpi worked since I got more
functionality at the baseline.  At this point, I've been through 4
different kernels, patched a few with different things, and finally
reached a "happy spot" with acpi on 2.6.10.

APM would cause kernel panics and lost interrupts no matter what version
I tried unfortunately.
