I don't like that. Plenty of machines were manufactured with APM and no
ACPI, or APM and broken ACPI, and some of those machines are still in
use. I think we should try to support them.
I haven't actually used APM recently, but I build my kernels with
apm* at mainbus0
apm* at acpi?
As somebody else mentioned, a "disabled" keyword in the config(5) syntax
would be nice. Then we could build kernels with
apm* at mainbus0 disabled
apm* at acpi?
and enable apm at mainbus via userconf(4).
