Here's a short update on this thread:

After disabling ACPI and enabling APM in 5.1-RELEASE with the following:

unset acpi_load
set hint.acpi.0.disabled=1
unset hint.apm.0.disabled
boot

And enabling the apm management system with the following:

apm -e enable

(I have included my 'apm' output below.)

'apm -Z' WORKS to put the system in Standby. Also, the laptop comes
out of standby without any trouble. Unfortunately, Standby doesn't
save much power on my laptop. It doesn't even shut off the disk.

I can run 'apm -z' to successfully suspend the system.
However, when the system comes back up, it reinits the
firewire and the first ata device, and hangs on this line:

ata1: resetting devices ..

In my dmesg.boot, I have this:

ata1-slave: timeout waiting for interrupt
ata1-slave: ATAPI identify failed

(See attached for full dmesg.boot)

Could this be related to my problem?

I did a bit of searching on google, and came up with this
thread from late 2000:

http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3?msg_id=4749194&list=152

Which _seems_ to be a similar problem, but didn't get any
responses.


Does anyone have any ideas?
