What happens now when you press the power button? What does your syslog say? First of all, you need an ATX motherboard. (Any motherboard newer than about 7/8 or so years ago). Then you need ACPI compiled into your kernel, as well as `emerge acpid`. Finally, if it still doesn't work, post what you see from tail -f /var/log/messages or whatever your syslog is, when you press the power button. post back if that doesn't work! -- Iain Buchanan If you fail to plan, plan to fail. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
