To enable acpi on my SuSE 8.2 laptop (Kernel 2.4.20) I had to recompile the kernel to incorporate acpi support. Then it worked like a charm.

NetBSD 6.1.2: apm and admd not found

I installed NetBSD 6.1.2 amd64 and can't find the apm utility. Is it not in the base system? Is it necessary to recompile the default amd64 kernel to use apm? Or is there a new method for power management and suspend/resume? (2 Replies)

NAME
fujbp, fujhk -- Fujitsu Brightness, Pointer, and Hotkeys SYNOPSIS
fujbp* at acpi? fujhk* at acpi? DESCRIPTION
Some Fujitsu laptops come with vendor-specific ACPI devices to manage the laptop hotkeys (such as the 'Eco' button), and to control various built-in components (such as the display, the touchpad, and the speakers). The fujbp and fujhk drivers provide support, through these ACPI devices, for hotkeys, backlight on/off switch, brightness level control, and pointer on/off switch. The following sysctl(8) read/write variables are provided (when hardware support is available): hw.acpi.fujbp0.brightness Brightness level (integer). hw.acpi.fujbp0.pointer Pointer switch state (boolean). hw.acpi.fujhk0.backlight Backlight switch state (boolean). Please note, however, that future versions of the drivers may remove these sysctl(8) variables without prior notice. SEE ALSO
acpi(4), acpivga(4), sysctl(8), pmf(9), sysmon_pswitch(9) HISTORY
The fujbp and fujhk drivers appeared in NetBSD 6.0. AUTHORS
Gregoire Sutre <gsutre@NetBSD.org> CAVEATS
Brightness level and backlight switch state should be controlled via wsconsctl(8) instead of sysctl(8). The sysctl(8) variable hw.acpi.fujbp0.pointer should be replaced by a platform-independent userland control. BSD
