Also I have enabled apm as well as apmd in /etc/rc.conf. When I try to run apm i get: Unable to open /dev/apm: device not configured When trying to run apmd I get: Unable to open /dev/apmctl: device not configured I've tried running MAKEDEV and recreating the devices but I seem to keep getting the same error no matter what. Also looked in LINT but unfortunatly the apm info in there is rather sparse. Checked out the -questions and -bugs archives and didn't find much in the way of config information. The man pages also are lacking on config info (perhaps I should check the device man pages closer in case I missed something about configuring devices). Anyhoo, any help or insight into this would be greatly appreciated. I won't be back at work to check the list till Thursday so a cc to this email would be great. thank you for your time G-der gder@gder.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
