Thanks for the introduction. searching some more, I found this (ON fREEbsd 5.0-CURRENT): http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/CURRENT/relnotes/i386/x18.html >2.1.9 Contributed Software > >The Forth Inspired Command Language (FICL) used in the boot loader has >been updated to 2.05. >Support for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI), a >multi-vendor standard for configuration and power >management, has been added. This functionality has been provided by the >Intel ACPI Component Architecture project, >updated to the ACPI CA 20011120 snapshot. Some backward compatability for >applications using the older APM standard >has been provided. That looks verry promissing ! And it's not old as well... Any idea if this has started to be implemented ? or, maybe plans to make it work under 4.x ??? I found nothing on IPMI... Thank you.
