I am wondering if anyone knows how to turn off the display on a Dell inspirion 8600 when it goes into suspend mode, or if not that then just turning off the backlight as in dpms. The only thing I have found is if I do a sysctl hw.acpi.video.crt0.active=1 and then sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.active=0 that turns off the display completely, but it is difficult to get it to turn back on, plus the video card is still active so there is no power saving. Am currently running 6.0-CURRENT, built today, but I find the same thing on 5.3, and 5.4 pre. Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
