My problems appears to be the same as http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=124412 as originally reported here by someone who has more experience than me http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-acpi/2007-October/004162.html If that pr gets fixed then I suspect my problem will too as it is described like mine with the need to remove the battery to power off. Also my laptop has an express card slot and memory stick duo slot which is a TI device and not working last time I tested. That pr is using 1386, I am using amd64 but I have just tried a i386 install disk and it couldn't shutdown either. Thanks a lot. Below is the message I sent to bf but forgot to send to the mailing list also: On Tue, Aug 11, 2009 at 3:38 PM, Tim Matthews <tim.matthews7@gmail.com>wrote: > > > On Tue, Aug 11, 2009 at 1:22 AM, b. f. <bf1783@googlemail.com> wrote: > >> On 8/10/09, Tim Matthews <tim.matthews7@gmail.com> wrote: >> > On Mon, Aug 10, 2009 at 12:47 AM, b. f. <bf1783@googlemail.com> wrote: >> >> > Setting hw.acpi.disable_on_reboot to 1 does nothing to help my power off >> > problem.
