Hello, I've got a 5.x system, an older box that doesn't use acpi. My first item is i need to disable acpi. I believe i have done this. I have the following in /boot/device.hints: hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" hint.apm.0.disabled="0" hint.apm.0.flags="0x20" I next have to enable apm and get it to do system power downs when a shutdown -h or halt -p is issued. This is not working. I get the "press any key to reboot" but the system never powers down. Any ideas? Thanks. Dave.
