All is well, except I found the box would no | longer shutdown automatically using shutdown -p and hitting the power button | would just put the box into a sort of suspend or sleep state. | | Well, just now I looked at dmesg and came across this message "ACPI disabled by | blacklist. Contact your BIOS vendor.".. I believe this is most likely the | cause. I can't remember exactly what BIOS or motherboard is in there but I can | have a look if that is needed. Can anyone tell me why it's been blacklisted I meant why it MIGHT have been blacklisted, oops! | anyway? I didn't used to have any problems with it at all on the older CURRENT. | In fact I was quite impressed that I could turn it off, cleanly, by just hitting | the power button! I'll mess around and see if I can get ACPI loaded anyway | somehow and see if there's any ill effects with it. I set hint.acpi.0.disabled="0" in /boot/device.hints and it seems fine, just like with the previous current. It shutdown via the power button and switches off automatically again anyway :-) | | Well anyway, thanks in advance! | | | _______________________________________________ | freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list | http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions | To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
