Thanks for a such quick reply, I forgot to mention that pression the power button as you said doesn't work... But have you any idea of what can be the problem? As I have some free time, I can try to compare the ACPI support for my laptop between NetBSD 4, wich is working well, and FreeBSD. If you have advices, it can help me a lot.
