Oups, should have quoted my config: 2.4.18-pre4+ linux-2.4.18-NFS_ALL.dif pnpbios.patch_latest apm-idle-2.diff btaudio-2.4.17.diff.gz bttv-0.7.88-2.4.17.diff.gz imon-0.0.2-2.4.12-hp 00_nanosleep-5.dif ide.2.4.16.12102001.patch.bz2
You see, I'm fiddleing with power saving quite some time.
BTW: Would some enlighted kernel brain explain, why [ ] RTC stores time in GMT is only available, when APM is enabled. Does this mean, I cannot define my RTC mode when using ACPI?

Yup, it's called mknbi-linux here :)
I'm going to check ACPI mode without your patch now.
