Now that X11 is running as well as the ability to use my Netgear PCMCIA WiFi card, I have (it think) one last issue, apm. apm is reporting: -=- dhcp-8: {6} apm APM version: 1.2 APM Management: Enabled AC Line status: on-line Battery status: charging Remaining battery life: invalid value (0xffffffff) Remaining battery time: unknown Number of batteries: 1 Battery 0: Battery status: not present Resume timer: Wed Dec 31 15:59:59 1969 Resume on ring indicator: disabled APM Capabilities: unknown -=- Has anyone found a workaround for this; do the Dell laptops suffer from the same 'off by one' BIOS bug that some other makes have? (as I have read about via Googling...) [ pause ] Wait, I just used Google as a verb... The end of the world must be near... -Peter -- [ http://www.plosh.net/ ] - "Earth Halted : Please Reboot"
