Type of Computers:

* ASUS L8400L, x86 based laptop system, see
http://www.magicdevices.de/notebooks/asus/l_8400_k-1133_tl.html
for details

* ASUS P2B-F Board, x86 based desktop system

Common problem of both the desktop PC and the laptop:

$ cat /proc/apm
1.14 1.2 0x03 0x01 0xff 0x80 -1% -1 ?
^^^^^^^^
$ dmesg | grep apm
apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.14)

Kernels where this occurs:

* Kernel 2.4.16
* RedHat Kernel 2.4.9-13.

Kernel Config concerning APM and ACPI:

$ egrep -i "(APM|ACPI)" .config
CONFIG_APM=y
# CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND is not set
# CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE is not set
CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE=y
CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK=y
CONFIG_APM_RTC_IS_GMT=y
# CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS is not set
# CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF is not set

Anybody know why APM doesn't work with products from ASUS?
Is this a known bug?
