Hello,

I have a couple of questions:

1. FreeBSD suspends (I guess to memory) when lid is closed. But kernel
does not see apm0 and apmd does not run -- what could be the reason?

# apmd -d
apmd[470]: start
apmd: cannot open device file `/dev/apm': Device not configured
# dmesg | grep apm 
# grep apm /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC 
device          apm0    at nexus? disable flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management
# ls -l /dev/apm*
crw-rw-r--  1 root  operator   39,   0 Nov  9 15:54 /dev/apm
crw-rw----  1 root  operator   39,   8 Nov  9 15:54 /dev/apmctl

2. Does 'standby' mean 'suspend to RAM' and 'suspend' -- 'suspend to 
disk'?

3. If it does not, which command suspends system to disk?

Thanks a lot,
Alex
