Subject:   Poweroff problem with IBM ThinkPad T21 (ACPI?)

I just put 5.0-DP2 on my IBM ThinkPad T21 (which I can finaly use, 4.x
was pretty bad since only one of the two pcmcia slots worked, and
numerous other problems, forcing me to use windows) and have been very
very happy with it.  ACPI works nicely on the laptop, and everything
seems to be pretty happy (I did update it to current once and had to
reinstall as the stability was pretty bad, so I took it back to DP2
which is working well).

I only have 1 problem that I have been completely unable to solve.

If I power off the laptop (shutdown -p now, or halt -p), approximately
60-63 minutes later the laptop will power back on (I live in Los
Angeles, and so it powers back on in my laptop bag during my commute
home, so when I get home it's about to overheat) all by it's self.  This
is pretty odd.  I have found no way to make it not do this.

Does anyone have any ideas?  I have verified in the bios that nothing is
turned on that would cause this, nor did this happen under Windows XP.

Thanks in advance, and great work.  I'm really happy that I can finally
use FreeBSD on my laptop as well as my desktops/servers.

Greg
