Hi

I have trouble getting apm to work correctly. I have set reasonable
settings in the bios, that is, I turned off all the timer things except
wakeup on mouse. Still, whenever I do an apm -z or apm -Z, the box wakes
up just after a second or two. I don't see any processes that would switch
to running state ever so often.

How can I find out what is waking the box up so quickly?


And another issue (maybe a feature): when I do an apm -d 0, the display is
turned off and stays off until I switch from X to console or vice versa.
Is this the way it's supposed to be? What would I do if I wanted to just
turn off the display without suspending or going to standby and turning
it back on say on mouse movement?

And my last question: Does FreeBSD current support acpi?


thanks in advance, Tobe
