Re: freebsd6.2Release shutdown problem

[Zhang hw]

Last time, there was a mistake in the message, the return message should be
:
"Automatic reboot in 15 seconds press a key on the console to abort",here is
"abort" not "reboot". And after perssing a key,  the message below will
show:
"Press a key on the console to reboot or switch off the system"

freebsd6.2Release shutdown problem

[Zhang hw]

I have upgraded my FreeBSD from 6.1 to 6.2-RELEASE-p6, and my xorg if update
to version 7.2, the wm is fvwm2.4. Every time after I have been working in
the fvwm environment and quited to the console, input shutdown -p now , the
console return me the  final message:
"Automatic reboot in 15seconds press a key on the console to reboot
Press a key on the console to reboot or switch off the system now"
What should I do then? should I took off the computer power then? Or allow
it reboot automatic? If it reboot automaticly to a console and input
"shutdown -p now" immediately without any other operate, the system will
shut off crrectly include taking off the power.
Who can tell me how to deal with this problem ?
Thanks!

shutdown problem

[koen de wijs]

Hello,
I have reinstalled FreeBSD. First I used 5.2.1 and now am I using 5.3. 
When I shutdown my system I have to press the power button to shutdown. 
With 5.2.1 I didn't need to do that.
I searched some time and I found this:

I found this text on this site: 
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.3R/relnotes-i386.html
The acpi(4) 
 
driver will now be disabled automatically when the machine has a 
well-known broken BIOS. This behavior can be overridden by setting the 
loader tunable hint.acpi.0.disabled to 0.

Do I have to add the line /hint.acpi.0.disabled="0"   /to loader.conf??
Or do I have to add the line /hw.acpi.disable_on_poweroff="0"??
/Could anybody help me? I'm new to both FreeBSD and Unix.
Thanks Koen

Unfortunately it seems that ACPI on your system is not supported under
FreeBSD at the moment.  ACPI should be pretty standard, but like
everything in the PC world, there are any number of implementations
all slightly different from each other.  And mostly done as cheaply as
possible, and with the only requirement being that it works with
Windows...

In order to fix this, you'ld have to get a motherboard using the same
chipset into the claws of one of the FreeBSD developers interested in
the ACPI stuff.  It may have happened already -- but any fix would
only be in 5-CURRENT so far and upgrading to that is not recommended
except for experts -- so your only other option to get ACPI support is
to wait until a new FreeBSD release: 5.2.1 is due out RSN, or 5.3 will
be out in a few months.

In the mean time, if you're using a desktop system then doing without
ACPI isn't too much hardship.  You won't be able to power off from the
keyboard but application of a forefinger to the power button usually
suffices.  OTOH, if you're using a mobile then the ACPI power control
features are much more important. Ho hum.

Cheers,

Matthew

Shutdown Problem

[gerard-seibert]

FreeBSD Version: 5.2

I have previously posted in regards to the shutdown command not powering off
my computer. The command I used was:

shutdown -p now

The system would simple get to the point where it stated "Press Any Key to
Reboot". This problem did not exist under Windows. The system would power
off without incident using Win2K.

Upon further investigation, I have discovered the following entries in the
'dmesg' file"

ACPI-0159: *** Error: AcpiLoadTables: Could not get RSDP, AE_NO_ACPI_TABLES
ACPI-0213: *** Error: AcpiLoadTables: Could not load tables:
AE_NO_ACPI_TABLES
ACPI: table load failed: AE_NO_ACPI_TABLES

I have no idea what that means, but I assume that it has something to do
with the problem I am experiencing. Perhaps someone might have some idea
what is happening and how to correct it.

Thanks!

Note the word "disable" in there.

Assuming you're running FreeBSD 4.9 (you didn't specify):
you need to enable the apm device in your kernel.
