Catch kernel notification in devd.conf
Hi,
I want my laptop to shutdown when the battery is critical low, but the
ACPI Battery info warning only comes on at a battery level of 10, but I
just noticed that the kernel logs:
kernel: battery0: critically low charge!
..this happens at battery "life" 7. Better point of shutting down, this
will give me at least 10 minutes more ;-)
How can I catch this in the devd.conf?
My current catch of the battery notifications looks like this (and it
works nicely, but in my point of view, too early):
notify 10 {
match "system" "ACPI";
match "subsystem" "CMBAT";
action "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/battery";
};
Of course, I could make a loop in the "battery" shell script to catch it
from the "sysctl -n hw.acpi.battery.life" ;-), but if I can get the
kernel "critically low charge", I think that's better.

Wireless network
Hello there, I just installed FreeBSD on my laptop, a Toshiba Satellite Pro L40. Everything is working nicely, even X with the intel driver. The laptop has a buildin wireless network, presenting itself during boot as: ugen0: on uhub2 For some reason it is registered as an USB item. I have not been able to find a driver for this, and I know that it can be tricky to get it up running. Have any of you guys had any luck with this type of wireless? ..or should I just stick to a new USB wireless adapter, known to be working in FreeBSD? -- Mvh/Brgds Harry FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT Compiled at Mon May 12 19:58:10 CEST 2008 i386 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Keyboard without Scroll Lock
Hi, I don't know where to post this, except from this list, so maybe someone will add it to a FAQ ;-). just for info, if you happens to buy a keyboard without the Scroll Lock key, as I did (Logitech EX110), and are missing this function in consoles, I found a solution with re-configuring the keymap (I'm probably not the first, but did not find a short solution on the web). As root: Dump the keyboard map to a file kbdcontrol -d >mykeys Change the file so "Ctrl+NumLock" will set "Scroll Lock". Find line with scancode "base" 069, or where "nlock" fills the entire line. Edit column 3 from "nlock" to "slock" The line now looks like: "069 nlock nlock slock nlock nlock nlock nlock nlock O" Edit /etc/rc.conf: keymap="/home/xxx/mykeys" #where the file is Reboot, and now "Ctrl+NumLock" will toggle the Scroll Lock bit. Before you reboot it is possible to try if it works. As root, issue the command: kbdcontrol -l mykeys -- Mvh/Brgds Harry FreeBSD mugin.localhost 7.0-CURRENT #8: i386 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
