hello again, I have enabled it but there are 3 problems now! first problem, when the FreeBSD is booting it does not probe for APM first I should get into the configuration with boot -cv then enable it, but then it does not save it, how can I handle it? the second problem is even though it says that it found apm 1.2 the halt -p or shutdown -p commands are not working. on the Intel board it even does not find APM support! I looked into the bios if there is anything about the APM but the only thing I could find was an option asking about the OS installed...there was options as Win95, Win98/NT 5.0 I tried both but I could not get FreeBSD to find APM support anyway. But win98 was able to shutdown the system normally so I think FreeBSD should be able to do it too. thanks for the reply...
