Re: Problem with lid on Dell D400

On a Dell D400 notebook (Pentium-M 1.4GHz, Intel 855GM, ICH4M) running
FreeBSD 7.0 #0
Closing the lid switches off the display, opening the lid does not
switch the display back on. Very annoying. The machine is fully
functional otherwise (accessed via ssh).
Noticed this first on a vanilla FreeBSD-7.0 #0 install, the optimized
kernel seems to behave the same.
In sysctl I noticed after closing and opening the lid
hw.acpi.lid_switch_state: NONE
but I have not checked the status of this sysctl before I closed the lid.
dmesg output is not of boot -v, but of regular boot
I wouldn't care if the lid doesn't have acpi features (e.g. suspend on
lid close), but I'd like the screen to switch off for additional
battery-life.
Hope someone can help me!
on Dell 1300B I use module acpi_video
add to loader.conf acpi_video_load=yes
and configure devd.conf to run script on lid change status: exist in
it's examples.

Depending on the type of Xeon, the use of amd64 _is_ possible. Does it support EMT64? If that is the case, it should have a line saying AMD Features = bla,LM,bla in your dmesg which means the use of FreeBSD-amd64 is supported. Hm, greater fanks!
