Yep. Just found that out. The kernel compiles without any errors though.

Actually, in the install script they should automatically remove the APM settings if SMP is configured.

Nope... don't work. There are basic problems with handling APM requests and
SMP... race conditions. I'm surprised it didn't give you a compile time
