apm question.

I'm running RedHat 5.1 on a Gateway solo.  When I go through a
suspend/resume cycle, I sometimes find that my ethernet is hung, and I
find I need to reset the PCMCIA card to bring things back online. 

I noticed in the manpage for apmd, that the daemon notices a resume from
suspend, and 'makes a feable [sic] attempt to reset the clock'.  Is there
by any chance a newer version out there, which allows for the calling of
an external user routine at the 'pending suspend' and 'critical resume'
events?  This would be a great way to automate some of the suspend/resume
workarounds for various hardware configurations, that I keep reading about
on linux-laptop.
