Where to set it up? man pages etc. ? I believe 5.0 will load acpi automatically if a module exists for it. If it doesn't, rebuild your kernel with "options acpi". I don't think there are any real docs for it yet. For setting the switch states, run "sysctl hw.acpi" to list the switches acpi knows about. The switch names will all end in _state and have a value of S0..S5, S0 being "full power", S1-S3 being different sleep states, S4 being hibernate (not supported afaik), and S5 being "power off". Run "sysctl -w hw.acpi.blahblah_state=S1" to set. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
