The Fn-keys for turning the brightness up/down doesn't work with 5.0 on my laptop. > I do not think this has anything to do with ACPI implimentation in > FreeBSD. Since the brightness was turned down because the machine was put into economy-mode and the powermanagment is handled by the ACPI subsystem, I would believe that has. So the real question is: Can you configure the economy-profile to start doing it again? /peter -- If you hold a Unix shell to your ear, do you hear the C?
