I have experienced the same thing on my Dell Inspiron 5100. I'm not currently running it that way, but was. Until I read that ACPI and APM will not run together. Supposedly the last one up notices the first and bails. So I opted for ACPI... which has left me wishing I was back with both even though they are not supposed to work together. I'm interested too, in other's opinions/explanations of this phenomenon. > > > > _____ > Douglas Denault > http://www.safeport.com > doug@safeport.com > Voice: 301-469-8766 > Fax: 301-469-0601 > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > -- Regards, Eric
