Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Thu, 03 Sep 1998 11:25:12 -0700 From: Daniel Zappala Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I tried APM for the first time the other day --- compiling a kernel with the extensions, making the appropriate device, and turning it on in rc.conf. Was able to access the status of the battery, etc, but couldn't resume once I suspended the machine. So I rebooted with my original kernel, and now my screen dimensions in DOS and in the FreeBSD console have shrunk. Once I start W95 or X and the GUI starts up, then I can use the full screen. While this seems an odd problem to have, and annoying to a perfectionist, it isn't really causing difficulties. Nevertheless, I'm curious what I might have done and how I might fix it. Using FreeBSD 2.2.7 on a Thinkpad 560X. One clue is that a Thinkpad utility reports APM 1.0, while the code I tried was 1.1. Ideas?
