You're welcome, and thanks in return!

Hey -- the preceding one worked too!

Except for logging entirely too many messages; if you noticed
that problem (in this or previous releases) I encourage you to
try this release.  And, if you _don't_ use the new "proxy" script,
this should work like before beta7, modulo the fixes to the AC
on/off callbacks from beta6 (which just called them on resume,
not at other times).

Oh ... and maybe you'd like documentation?  I updated the man
page too.  It'd been three years, and there are lots of new
options by now.  I couldn't restrain myself. ;-)

I guess this is the list to request bug reports on; I'll gladly
fix any I inflicted on folk.  (And maybe a few others.)  I'm
willing to suspect that working on a Toshiba Portege 3020 isn't
quite sufficient testing.

p.s. Anyone know why kernel 2.2.10 doesn't have the APM update?
	Did Linus think it needed more testing or something?
