Not with that "disable" in there, which disables it. On every desktop system I've tried, a simple device apm is enough. Other hints may be required for some notebooks. Of course, this is just the kernel part. It also needs apm entries in /etc/rc.conf and an APM-cable BIOS. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Is APM enabled in your BIOS? These two answers are the basic ones.

APM on 4.9 on a Winbook XL2 laptop
I can't get the APM on this to work for anything. I have tried putting: apm_load="YES" in my /boot/loader.conf file, and the lines: apm_enable="YES" apmd_enable="YES" in my /etc/rc.conf file. I run apm -a and it tells me: apm: can't open /dev/apm: Device not configured Any ideas?
