trying to hibernate knoppix ...

I read in this forum, the way to hibernate knoppix is using apm
~
Is it true still with the version I am running?. I got:
~
root@Knoppix:~# uname -a
Linux Knoppix 2.6.19 #7 SMP PREEMPT Sun Dec 17 22:01:07 CET 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
~
which I start as:
~
root@Knoppix:~# dmesg | grep command
Kernel command line: ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off vga=791 initrd=minirt.gz nomce loglevel=0 quiet BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix BOOT_IMAGE=linux init 2 xmodule=vesa bootfrom=/dev/hdb5
~
however knoppix still starts acpi instead of apm
~
~
knoppix@Knoppix:~$ dmesg | grep acpi

root@Knoppix:~# apm --suspend
No APM support in kernel

How can hibernate knoppix?
~
I think it should be possible in a relatively easy way since it has been around long enough

including acpi=off made the kernel load apm and not acpi and "apm --suspend" did work, but computer didn't really hibernate monitor shutdown and keyboard and mouse were not responsive, so I guess there was more to it, but what bothered me must was that the hard drives and fan were still humming
~
I want to be able to go:
~
ifconfig eth<?>down
~
apm --suspend (acpi would be nicer)
~
leave my box totally silent and wasting no power whatsoever, but being able to instantly use it again
