I had a Toshiba laptop, a rather new one (p3 500MHz) and IIRC the powersave-modes (dimmer screen etc) adjusting via function keys didn't ask anything from OS, BIOS trapped the keyboard signals and carried the operation away.

NFS lagging
I'm running FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE on a dual P3 800MHz/512MB/Tekram DC-390 SCSI. Moved all my IDE disks on another 'puter to access via NFS. So I ended up putting up a Debian server, because some of the disks were already in ext2fs. Now I'm experiencing heavy lag on my desktop when I use the NFS intensively, like copy a large file over. I get these 1-3 second pauses in everything, looks like ssh lag but it's local(!). Mouse pointer in X doesn't seem affected, but even console lags if you type in. I'm using NFSv3, tried it over TCP too, but since it's LAN, i dropped back to UDP. Here's dmesg: cam: using minimum scsi_delay (100ms) Copyright (c) 1992-2003 The FreeBSD Project.

Just as an update: I've been listening to quite a lot of techno/trance music lately, and it scares me - every now and then xmms loses the beat when playing, even if there was absolutely no other load. The pause is so quick you can't really notice it elsewhere, but it's definetely there. Continuing investigations.

It's noticeable - if you type under heavy load in console, you experience similar to ssh lag - you can't see what you type, but it appears a second later to the screen. I've spoken about this issue on IRC for a few times, and ran into a guy who said he was experiencing similar problems on 5.0-REL. Just to let you know. I've tried adding HR< to malloc.conf and removing ALL unneccessary options from the kernel, no help.

Performance problems with 5.0-RELEASE
I've used 5.0-RELEASE for few days now, and I've been experiencing some serious performance problems. I haven't had the time to examine it more closely, and frankly, I have no clue where to start looking for. Perhaps someone knows what this is all about. Description: Every time machine is under heavy load (CPU, network, disks) it completely jamms for fraction of a second for every ten seconds or so, everything just stops and then continues. I noticed this while compiling software and copying files over NFS while listening to MP3's, later realized it wasn't just MP3's that lagged, but the whole machine, including console and everything.
