hi misc. just to followup on my Vaio: (been a week, no cigars)
1. I was hoping to update the bios, but Sony have dropped all support for this old laptop, and have removed all drivers and bios downloads from their websites. 2. I upgraded to a latest snapshot and experienced same behaviour. 3. I considered trying an older release eg 5.9 or 6.3 but wasn't sure it would help. It's a small issue, and will not hinder OpenBSD usage on this device, so it can remain an unsolved, but minor mystery. thanks anyways. -Sub. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Tuesday, September 28th, 2021 at 8:08 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Misc, > > A fresh install of 6.9+syspatch on a 2012-ish Sony Vaio Laptop (VPCS11FG) > > only physical change pre-install was swapping the 320 hdd with 250 ssd. > > It's a vanila install, with 'apmd' enabled + flag '-A' for adaptive/auto > cpu-freq. > > All the other laptop things seem to be working. eg; wifi, suspend. > > (well the screen brightness controls are not mapped but need to research that) > > APM itself seems to be doing its thing, however...the output of 'apm' A/C > adapter state: is not representive of the physical connection .. and will > only show the state that was booted. > > Removing the A/C does not change state..
