How do I get a Dell PC1425 to power off on shutdown -h.

I have tried to enable apm but get the following error.
269: `apm' cannot attach to `mainbus'

NetBsd 4.0 Rc2.

I have also tried to enable apci, but that did not help

Thanks

I think that you should try shutdown -p.

Which generates nice ACPI errors for me. :D

(a) What errors do you get?
(b) Can you try a kernel from jmcneill-pm?
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/joerg/20071008 has kernel images.
(c) Why is this on tech-net?
