The __asm__ (hlt) doesn't power down, isn't it? Could you guys help me to identify how shutdown request a power down. HLT is just an old power-saving instruction that was traditionally run in the idle loop. From reading the code it looks like the system should be powered off during poweroff_wait but I can't see where ACPI is told to remove power. You might get more help by asking on the freebsd-acpi list. -- Bruce Cran ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
