Re: Problems with startx on 5.2-RC2
I had another ACPI related problem on my asus (nvidia) a7n8x, and posted to the 'current' mailing list. One of the replies suggested how to disable acpi cleanly: At 09:17 +0200 01/01/2004, Danny Braniss wrote: >try adding in file /boot/device.hints: >hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" > >danny That worked - it changed the boot menu choice from "boot with acpi disabled" to "boot with acpi enabled". tks j At 09:56 -0500 01/02/2004, Trey Sizemore wrote: >Trey Sizemore wrote: > >>Jaroslaw Nozderko wrote: >> >>>OS: FreeBSD 5.2-RC2 (MAC - biba,mls) >>> >>Yes, see my post from earlier today called "Can't shutdown, logout, or restart >>cleanly."
