So I think to myself, what else did I change last night.... oh >yeah, powerd! So I turn that off, and voila, X! Do you really mean powerd(8)? Or the separate /etc/rc.d/power_profile ? There was some confusion between the two earlier in this thread. What related settings are you using, via {rc,sysctl,loader}.conf? Which power-governing drivers are active on your machine: est? ichss? smist? p4tcc? acpi_perf? acpi_throttle? acpi_thermal? acpi_video? Which nvidia driver? If you compile your kernel with options ACPI_DEBUG, and enable acpi debugging messages, do you see any errors/problems? b.
