I have a Thinkpad A22 with a fairly well known power drain problem: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problem_with_high_power_drain_in_ACPI_sleep
I have seen a suggestion that perhaps the following patches may help to allieveate this issue (http://people.freebsd.org/~iedowse/vesa_restore.diff http://people.freebsd.org/~jhb/patches/acpi_video_dpms.patch). However, I'm new to this, and am not sure where I should be placing these patches, and how this should work. From the patch man page, I believe I should be able to just go 'cat acpi_video_dpms.patch | patch -d /usr/src/sys/dev/acpica ' Am I thinking this out right? -- Matthew _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
