There's some code in arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c whose intention
is to change an APM setting for all IBM laptops. The relevant
table entry looks like this in 2.4.18:
{ set_apm_ints, "IBM", { /* Allow interrupts during suspend on IBM laptops */
MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "IBM"),
NO_MATCH, NO_MATCH, NO_MATCH
} },
HTH,
Michael.
