I've been half following this thread because I too am still trying to figure out all the things that ACPI can do (my laptop doesn't seem to support much of the things it should support). One of the things that doesn't work is the screen turning off completely. When I try the command above, the backlight is still on. Is there any way that I can fix this? I don't really know what xset is controlled by/installed with--it's X, so probably XFree86? I'm running a 2.4.22 kernel. emma -- Emma Jane Hogbin [[ 416 417 2868 ][ www.xtrinsic.com ]]
