Fabian Thank you for the prompt advice. I tried the modifications you suggested, and I would say that (unfortunately) at best the situation is now the same as before: I made the changes, then rebooted, and before starting X, I used zzz to put my system to sleep. I then woke it back up by opening the lid, and the console seemed ok. However, I then tried to start x, and was never successful. I had a mostly black screen, with some red junk at the top (looked like the space invaders characters from the old Atari game), and a couple of partial horizontal lines that when from {red-white} repeatedly. I was able to get my system to then shut down nicely by pressing the power button. This took a little while, but things seemed ok. What else should I try? Also, I noticed one problem that I just always "put up with" in 5.3 - my moused seems to lose responsiveness after sleeping with zzz. I just got used to finding the process number for moused before running zzz, and then entering zzz ; kill -HUP {moused process number} When I wanted to put my system to sleep. Is there a workaround for this? I am using the built-in trackpoint mouse on my thinkpad. thanks, Lee Fabian Keil wrote: >Lee Parsons <pars0080@umn.edu> wrote: > > > >>I had previously ran my Freebsd 5.3 on my thinkpad R32, where I had >>compiled acpi (but not apm) into my kernel.
