dear Joshua, i'm sorry, i forget to mention that i already comment out the default apm0 disable line i insert a new "device apm0" after that i can see apm0 in dmesg but when i enter "shutdown -p now", the system just reboot instead of turning off the power i also put apm_enable="YES" and apmd_enable="YES" in rc.conf --- Joshua Lokken <joshua@joshualokken.com> wrote: > * yew chin (yutaka82@yahoo.com) wrote: > ==> i already compile "device apm0" in my kernel > ==> but when i enter "shutdown -p now" or "halt -p" > ==> the systerm automatically reboot instead of > shutdown > ==> it is same like "reboot" or "shutdown -r now" > ==> did anyone know what's going on? > ==> > ==> > > I try to turn off freebsd automatically > after the > ==> > command "shutdown -p > ==> > > now" or "halt -p" but after the systerm > halt, > ==> > freebsd won't turn the > ==> > > machine's power off. i have to turn off the > power > ==> > manually. i have > ==> > > read some article about adding apm support > in the > ==> > freebsd kernel.
