Actually, it's working flawlessly for me on a Chembook derivative.  but 
here's the catch.  It's quite old and doesn't pass the BIOS test for 
acpi (older than 2001).  So apm handles power management.  BVattery 
applet on gkrellm is accurate, and suspend works great.  You might want 
to try turning acpi off, perhaps <shrug>
