I just bought a Dell-Latitude laptop.   I have problems with APM on that 
machine.   Whe I type 'zzz',  the monitor becomes black, then the screen
comes on again.   The logs say:

Nov 29 19:18:40 d50-38c9 /kernel: resumed from suspended mode (slept 00:00:00)
Nov 29 19:18:40 d50-38c9 /kernel: ata0: resetting devices .. done


APM is enabled in the kernel:
device		apm0    at nexus? flags 0x0020 # Advanced Power Management
(I've also tried
device		apm0    at nexus? flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management
).

 From dmesg:

Nov 28 11:25:49 il27-7622 /kernel: apm0: <APM BIOS> on motherboard
Nov 28 14:34:39 il27-7622 /kernel: apm: found APM BIOS v1.2, connected at v1.2

APM is enabled in the BIOS.

Any clues why this machine doesn't suspend?  Is that a problem with 
Dell Latitude in general?

Many thanks,

Vladimir
