I have a Thinkpad 390x; apm worked on 4.7. If I run apmd -d, I get: apmd[776]: start apmd: cannot open device file `/dev/apmctl': No such file or directory Okay, I think. I look for /dev/MAKEDEV, it's missing. After some googling, it looks like devfs is a new concept replacing MAKEDEV. So I do some reading on this, and try to add a rule per the manpage: lappie# devfs rule add path apm mode 660 devfs rule: ioctl DEVFSIO_RADD: Input/output error Any ideas? -- Sean LeBlanc:seanleblanc@americanisp.net http://users.americanisp.net/~seanleblanc/ Get MLAC at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mlac/ Above all nations is humanity. -Goldwin Smith (contributed by Chris Johnston) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
