The motherboard said it supports both apm and acpi but had no obvious way of enabling apm, so I enabled acpi, recompiled a kernel with acpi support, loaded the acpid software and removed the apmd software and hey presto, it worked! Thanks to you and all that responded with advice. Regards Wayne. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
