I recently got slackware configured perfectly with my laptop and wireless network, only to find out that when I try for apm support i get a message telling me the kernel has no apm suport, short of recompiling the kernel what options do i have to get apm working.

I would rather not recompile the kernel as i just got everything set up perfectly. This is Slackware 10.0 and an old Dell Latitude CPi laptop.

Edit the /etc/rc.d/rc.modules file. Uncomment the /sbin/modprobe/apm. This will load the apm module at startup.

As root use the command lsmod to see what modules are loaded.

Enjoy slackware
