Subject:   HD spindown using APM 1.2

I purchased my Libretto 110CT and installed FreeBSD 3.1 on it.  Everything
seems to be working just fine (the FTP Passive net install worked just
perfectly), except that even when I build an OS with apm0 (not disabled
as is the default), change the sync timer to 1800 seconds instead of 30,
and do "apmconf -e", it still doesn't spin down the disk drive.

I configured the APM stuff using Windows98 (which came on the system)
and the disk spins down under Windows98 just fine.  When I boot FreeBSD
the disk never spins down.

Any ideas?  Any place I can get info about APM 1.2?

I tried setting the apm0 flags to 0x11 to try to force 1.1 mode, but it
still seems to realize it's really 1.2.  Maybe it's not forcing 1.1 mode
correctly.
