[1] Should the code generating the warning be active without CONFIG_PM being set? [2] Can you explain why the message is generated (why not silently ignore the older hardware) or is there something in an init script (I am using Fedora Core 2) that [incorrectly] assumes power management is available to cause the message to be printed? --Mark H Johnson
