I installed 5.2-RC2 again, added 

hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"

to /boot/device.hints, but then I got this in dmesg after vga0:...

unknown: <PNP0401> can't assign resources (port)
unknown: <PNP0501> can't assign resources (port)
unknown: <PNP0501> can't assign resources (port)
unknown: <PNP0700> can't assign resources (port)
unknown: <PNP0f13> can't assign resources (irq)
unknown: <PNP0303> can't assign resources (port)

Messages were always present with ACPI disabled and
absent when enabled. I've decided to get back
to 5.1 and wait for 5.2-RELEASE...

Regards,
Jarek
