Sorry, I should have been clearer in my answer...
APM bios screens just can't come up with ACPI because ACPI is
specified that the OS takes care of it all.
In addition, 2.4 ACPI just doesn't do suspend to disk,
regardless
of whether acpid is informed of button presses...
I had never thought about it, but you mean that to allow the bios setup
screens to come up during an X session something like 'suspend to memory'
had to be invoked first.
