First off, hello everyone, this is my first post to the list. I am relatively new to *nix, have made a few installations but haven't gotten much further then the basics. My question is concerning a FreeBSD 5.0 RC2 (need to update) installation on my Dell Latitude C600. I am wondering what kind of configurations I need to make in order to be able to put the laptop to sleep. In Windows, I could press the power button and the machine would sleep. Another problem has been when I close the display and open it back up, the machine appears to still be on but the screen never comes back. My next question is, what kind of power management utilities are available? I use Fluxbox window manager (and sometimes KDE). I'd like to be able to see how much battery power is left. Hopefully someone with the same configuration (C600) can give me some help. Thanks, -Tommy
