Evidently top posting is not a good thing. Ok from now on I will try and remember to bottom post on any future threads I participate in.
Jack, I am not clear on what you are trying to say here. In my config file I have the following line device apm0 at nexus? disable flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management Are you saying that it should actually be device apm0 at nexus? flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management ?? In other words I need to take out the word disable? If so kind of weird that they would have it be like that. Thanks for the help. Wayne --- "Jack L.
