Thanks David, I checked this page. now if I do: $ sysctl hw.acpi hw.acpi.supported_sleep_state: S1 S3 S4 S5 hw.acpi.power_button_state: S5 hw.acpi.sleep_button_state: S1 hw.acpi.lid_switch_state: NONE hw.acpi.standby_state: S1 hw.acpi.suspend_state: S3 hw.acpi.sleep_delay: 1 hw.acpi.s4bios: 0 hw.acpi.verbose: 0 hw.acpi.reset_video: 1 hw.acpi.cpu.cx_supported: C1/0 hw.acpi.cpu.cx_lowest: C1 hw.acpi.cpu.cx_usage: 100.00%
and if i do #sudo acpiconf -s 5 OR #sudo acpiconf -s 1 nothing happens. Can I reinstall acpi, if yes, how can i do it? thanks. On 9/16/06, David J Brooks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

It sounds like a broken ACPI code to me. Check the handbook chapter on debugging ACPI: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/acpi-debug.html David
