    Well I've now read:

    ACPI-HOWTO
    http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/ACPI-HOWTO/index.html

    Battery-Powered-HOWTO
    http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Battery-Powered/index.html

    Laptop-HOWTO
    http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Laptop-HOWTO.html

    I think I now understand the difference between ACPI and APM. However,
    the above documents are a little out of date and don't really cover
    what's in the latest kernels with regard to ACPI.

    Does anyone know the answer to this? My clean install of FC2 enabled
    both of these services -- I didn't:

    # chkconfig --list acpid
    acpid 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off

    # chkconfig --list apmd
    apmd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off

    Best, Darren
