Hello, I have reinstalled FreeBSD. First I used 5.2.1 and now am I using 5.3. When I shutdown my system I have to press the power button to shutdown. With 5.2.1 I didn't need to do that. I searched some time and I found this: I found this text on this site: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.3R/relnotes-i386.html The acpi(4) <http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=acpi&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+5.3-RELEASE> driver will now be disabled automatically when the machine has a well-known broken BIOS. This behavior can be overridden by setting the loader tunable hint.acpi.0.disabled to 0. Do I have to add the line /hint.acpi.0.disabled="0" /to loader.conf?? Or do I have to add the line /hw.acpi.disable_on_poweroff="0"?? /Could anybody help me? I'm new to both FreeBSD and Unix. Thanks Koen
