Hello,

I would like to know when will work APM on SMP machines? I use Dell workstation 400 with 2 P2 CPUs.
When I remove one CPU APM works, when I have 2 in case APM doesn't work

I can't use ACPI, because this machine doesn't support it.

apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.16)
apm: disabled - APM is not SMP safe.

Thanks for fixing and reply - it's very uncomfortable switch off computer manually :(

Michal
