Hi,

I can't seem to get the display to shut off when I press the lid switch.
In /boot/loader.conf I have 

acpi_load="YES"
acpi_video_load="YES"

In /etc/devd.conf I have
notify 10 {
        match "system"          "ACPI";
        match "subsystem"       "Lid";
        action                  "/usr/sbin/acpiconf -s 1";
};

(I tried -s 3 but it just crashes and reboots)

I don't know if this has any bearing on it, but I also have
device          pmtimer
in the kernel config.

The bios version is "A16", the latest version.

The system does go to sleep (at least the power indicator starts flashing)
but the screen stays lit.  Does anyone have this running?

Many thanks!

Rich
