I have been able to get my netbsd system working well so far, every problem with its solution. Y'all have been great :). Now, I'm figuring out sleep and whatnot.

sysctl -w hw.acpi.sleep.state=3

definitely puts the laptop to sleep and it wakes up with power button press - yay.

How do I put the display to sleep from the terminal window?

In CTWM, I can use:

xset dpms force off

and it goes off and comes back on when I press a key, which is great, but that's only in x. What about when I'm not in x? Is there a similar command for outside of x?

Thanks,

Will
