Thanks. That helped. I've got "shutdown -p now" back now as
well. The back light was more important than power management
so I had disabled acpi between between sessions.
Standby still has the same symptoms. I added
hw.acpi.video.out0.active=1 to sysctl.conf in case it was rebooting
so it would restore the back light on the way up. This doesn't
appear to be the case.
