I also want to get APM working on my FreeBSD box. I have 4.1.1 release. Following your instructions, I've checked the following: In /etc/rc.conf, I have: apm_enable="YES" I'm assuming that this is the same as enable_apm="YES" as you suggested? I've checked that APM is enabled in my BIOS. But what do you mean by add: en apm to /boot/kernel.conf ?? I've looked in my /boot directory and there is no kernel.conf file.

Basically I would like FreeBSD (rel4.1.1) to shutdown the computer using halt -p (is that even the correct arguement?!) without having to press the power button. The generic kernel already has "device apm0" set up so.. I have no idea.
