What Lars said about 'hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=S3' .. assuming suspend & resume work properly normally (via 'acpiconf -s3' or your sleep button) But regarding your battery, from your dmesg it IS being recognised: battery0: <ACPI Control Method Battery> on acpi0 acpi_acad0: <AC Adapter> on acpi0 [..] battery0: battery initialization start acpi_acad0: acline initialization start battery0: critically low charge! acpi_acad0: On Line [..] battery0: battery initialization done, tried 1 times .. but is reporting critically low state on startup. Which is either a dead battery, or a broken charging circuit. Usually that has nothing to do with the OS; if you have it plugged in when not running, it should fully charge, or at least charge past the critically low state fairly quickly - and even when running on AC power. So as Kevin asked, 'sysctl hw.acpi' and 'acpiconf -i0' could be helpful. cheers, Ian _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-acpi To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
