Ive run FreeBSD since v4.0R, and am currently running 4.5R. I have two 
computers with totally different hardware. On both of my computers, and with 
every release ive run, I can never get it to power off the computer when i 
shutdown. ive already tried the obvious - shutdown -p. I relize that it says 
"hardware support required", but im wondering what exactly is meant by that 
(what kind of hardare is supported?). Is there any way I can get it to 
poweroff?

Thanks.
