I just looked and I don't even have acpi installed.
I installed it, and it then complains that /proc/acpi doesn't exist, and its 
right.
I then looked in /lib/modules/$KERNEL/kernel/drivers/acpi, and found a bunch 
of modules in there.

It appears that acpi and apm do the same thing, which is the prefered one to 
use anyway ?

And if acpi is the prefered, how do I load up the right modules ?
