If I run it from a shell in X, either as root or myself with sudo, the computer locks up - no panic, nothing . The only change I can see is the light in the USB mouse goes out, and that's it, total lock. If I do ctrl-Alt-F1 , a non-stopping beeping ensues. Upon restart, there is no log whatsoever of the apm -z attempt, and background fsck is run against all partitions sudo apm -z works fine. It happens in X having kdm or not kdm, KDE or just an xterm with no window manager running (aka 'failsafe' session type in kdm) - Toshiba Tecra A2, Bios 1.30 - FreeBSD xxxxxxx 6.0-STABLE FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #0: Thu Jan 19 01:54:47 EST 2006 root@xxxxxx:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 - APM, no ACPI (disabled via boot/device.hints) (long story, tons of g_vfs_done errors on resume) works for suspend (apm -z )and standby (apm -Z) . - rc.conf : allscreens_flags="MODE_30" apm_enable="YES" apmd_enable="YES" (and lots others, but only these seem relevant) - Xserver : xorg-server-6.8.2_6 , xorg-libraries-6.9.0 - KDE 3.4.2 Thanks in advance for any help / information!!
