You should check sysctl hw.acpi.thermal and look at the temperature value. If after sitting there for a while, it looks like it's close to _CRT (critical), then don't do that. However, most of the time it should be fine. One of the things on my list is to add enough validity checks to acpi_thermal that we can re-enable automatic shutdown -p when the box hits _CRT. > > > My goal is to get the lcd to turn off when I close the lid...anything more > > > than that would be great too. > > > > My laptop also does scary things when I go into S-anything-other-than-5.

That should just disable the one component that is giving you trouble, leaving the rest of acpi available. -Nate
