Hey, Sue ! He means that he wants to put the FreeBSD - and the HW, of course - in sleep mode. Hey, Alex: Did you enable the APS support on the kernel configuration ? before booting the system, where it says Boot: just type -c and enter. Next it you prompt you something else - sorry, don't remember what - and you will type visual. I suggest you take a look at detailed instructions on how to config. Does anyone have the correct address ? Anyway, a good hint would be Greg's site: http://www.lemis.com/ and, of course, www.freebsd.org find the FAQ section. I hope it helped somehow.
