I run kernel version 1.99.9 #2-pre-2.0.
My machine is a portable computer which according to the kernel doesn't have an APM BIOS. The problem is, power shutdown routines are still run.
I have configured the kernel to shutdown the computer's power when the system is halted. When I halt my system, the apm_set_power_state() in apm_bios.c is called, and at the lcall to the apm_bios_entry, a protection error occurs. I imagine that this is because the apm_bios_entry has never been setup, since the BIOS is not present.
Anyone want to fix this? It should only be a matter of skipping the routines if a APM BIOS is not detected.
