Now I'm back in -stable land I'll see if I can put the hooks in for folks. In regards to apm, you must make sure it's in the kernel and also enabled. By default it is disabled. You can either remove the 'disabled' bit from the GENERIC kernel config or add: en apm0 fl apm0 0x0 to /boot/kernel.conf (which may not exist yet) Cheers, Benjamin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
