I thought the APM was broken for the THinkpads? I do know that when I was
browsing through the source, there was a note in the file for the tlp
driver that said power management was on the todo list.
From /sys/dev/cardbus/if_tlp_cardbus.c, lines 40-48:
/*
* CardBus bus front-end for the Digital Semiconductor ``Tulip'' (21x4x)
* Ethernet controller family driver.
*
* TODO:
*
* - power management
*/
Hope this helps.
