I had this working at one time as well.  uninstalled and reinstalled
freebsd on this machine and never tried to get it working again.  but
this email reminded me to get that working again and I cant get it to
work either.  I do all that I am supposed to do with apm_enable in
rc.conf and I make sure that PM is still enabled in bios but I
continue to get /dev/apm not configured.  What does this mean.  I
seem to have gotten this at one time and fixed it but I cant remember
what I did.
