moin,

i can confirm your observations regarding strace -p <pid of apmd>
but for me the starting order of apmd and X makes no difference ..

my actual kernel: Linux dvalin 2.6.24 #1 PREEMPT Sun Aug 31 01:38:31  
CEST 2008 armv4tl GNU/Linux
(came from not longer reachable buildhost.openmoko.org/daily/ 
freerunner/200808/20080831 )

regards, morlac
