Probably. Possibly not. It depends whether you have an apm or acpi BIOS. > Or maybe since I have 'acpid' installed, I shouldn't have 'acpi' > installed? It looks like 'acpi' is just for compatibility with the old > 'apm' stuff? Everything I've seen makes it quite clear that acpi is the replacement for apm, so I'm not sure where you'd get that idea. acpid is simply a daemon for monitoring and reacting to acpi events. Without acpi, acpid doesn't do a thing. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
