Hi!

I saw many stuff about acpi in dmesg since I changed to 5.0
So I assume it's newer than APM.

# man zzz

--
APM(8)                  FreeBSD System Manager's Manual                 APM(8)

NAME
     apm, zzz - control the APM BIOS and display its information
[..]
--

How do I make my laptop suspend ?

# zzz
zzz: can't open /dev/apm: Permission denied
# su
Password:
# zzz
zzz: ioctl(APMIO_SUSPEND): Invalid argument

I don't really know the difference(s) between APCI and APM but can ACPI suspend
a computer as well ?

How should I proceed to make my laptop sleep ? :)

Thanx
