I am using Panorama on this T61. I believe Panorama is required for APM.
Panorama should not be a requirement for APM to work. Panorama will not intall on the T61 Intel graphics chipset.
I see you also have a ticket open for ACPI on the T61, which we should all watch (and to whcih we should contribute, if possible):
http://svn.netlabs.org/acpi/ticket/194
From APM-FAQ.doc:
Q6: Cooler on CPU is very loud, how can you help me?
A6: First of all:
* Use Panorama VESA video driver instead of GENGRAD or SDDGRAD
URL: http://ecomstation.ru/panorama
From APM.doc:
How to setup sleep/resume? June, 2007:
* Use Panorama VESA video driver
Diane's T61 has the nVidia chip in it. I wasn't aware that Panorama wouldn't install on the Intel chip. Very interesting.
I have 3.0.8 working, based on Neil's posting about the Intel 945GCNL (I have one of those machines in the next room, which is yet to be delivered to a client), by adding /SAP:0x20 to my PSD line, which now reads:
PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP /APIC /SAP:0x20
In addition, I have:
BASEDEV=APM.ADD
RUN=C:\OS2\ACPIDaemon.exe
I am currently testing with only the defaults in the CFG files.
The extra info you;re getting may be caused by:
LogScreen = 1
in %ETC%\ACPID.CFG
Interesting. My %ETC%\ACPID.CFG has nothing but commented lines.
I found that I got the extra debug stuff with 3.0.7 even with the setting at the default (off). The current (3.0.8) ACPID.CFG does indeed have uncommented lines in it.
For sound, I have the following in my unimix setup params, loaded from startup.cmd (unimix.exe -loadc:\mmos2\unimix.ini):
-id3 -cnt0 -val1
-id3 -cnt1 -val1
-id27 -val33
(N.B.: Those are not the contents of unimix.ini, merely the relevant settings. Set them manually, as parameters passed to unimix.exe, and then use unimix.exe -savec:\mmos2\unimix.ini to dump them.)
Do you have any idea what the format of unimix.ini is?
As I mentioned to Carl, that's just the name I gave it. It's a binary file, but all you need to do to create it is to save your current settings. So, starting from no sound at all, open a window and do the following:
unimix -id3 -cnt0 -val1 <Enter> (that should turn on the left channel)
unimix -id3 -cnt1 -val1 <Enter> (that should turn on the right channel)
unimix -id27 -val33 <Enter> (that should set the master volume for both channels to 33 out of 39; adjust to taste, obviously, and the volume applet works to adjust it, too)
Then, finally:
unimix -savec:\mmos2\unimix.ini <Enter> (to create the unimix.ini file itself)
Add to STARTUP.CMD:
unimix -loadc:\mmos2\unimix.ini
I seem to have about everything working. I installed Panorama using the wpi (the method for installing when SNAP is installed). The battery widgets both show 98%, the beer battery widget says that I have 6 minutes left on the battery. :)
I have the following in CONFIG.SYS now.
PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP /APIC /SAP:0x20
not sure what the 0x20 buys me
DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\MOUSE.SYS
I personally do not use Amouse unless it is needed
BASEDEV=APM.ADD
I removed the RUN=C:\OS2\ACPIDAEMON.EXE, created a little object for it, and put it in the startup folder.
My startup.cmd file:
@attrib -r -h -s c:\os2\os2.ini > nul
@attrib -r -h -s c:\os2\os2sys.ini > nul
@unimix.exe -id3 -cnt0 -val1 > nul
@unimix.exe -id3 -cnt1 -val1 > nul
@unimix.exe -id27 -val33 > nul
@exit
