Using APM (not ACPI) on a new ubuntu box.  Working fine for several
days.  Just yesterday I noticed that apmd is no longer starting when
entering runlevel 2 and I can't explain why.  Any ideas?

During bootup I see the console message:
"Starting Advanced Power Management daemon..."

But after login, I see no apmd process:
$ ps -e | grep apm
 7131 ?        00:00:00 kapmd

I see the startup script:
/etc/rc2.d/S20apmd

It's linked to ../init.d/apmd

It works just fine if I run it manually:
$ sudo /etc/rc2.d/S20apmd start
 * Starting Advanced Power Management daemon...[ok]

$ ps -e | grep apm
 7131 ?        00:00:00 kapmd
 7997 ?        00:00:00 apmd

No messages in /var/log/messages regarding a failure at start up.

I'm drawing blanks.  I can't think of anything I changed.  What's a good
way to troubleshoot this?

...Kevin
