did you do the modprobe commands as 'root'?

go to the /lib/modules directory and see if you have the module somewhere:
cd /lib/modules
find -type f -name *apm*
find -type f -name *acpi*

See if that returns anything.
If you have a standard distro setup you should have the module already
somewhere.  If you built your own kernel, you'll have to enable and build
the module.
