Hmm, I was tracking stable until recently, and from 4.0 onwards I've managed to get shutdown -p working on my Asus A7V (unlike my previous motherboard which rebooted on any halt, meant I had to be quick with the off button :). From memory you need "device apm" in your kernel config file and add apm_enable="YES" to your /etc/rc.conf and it *should* work, best of luck! -- Simon Dick simond@irrelevant.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
