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 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
