Interesting. Did you do this on the same machine? Have acpi_wmi and
acpi_hp been really updated on make install (timestamps approx. the same
as for acpi_ibm)?

I hereby post this to the general mailing list, because I have no amd64
system to test on and I'm pretty sure I'm not aware of some nuts and
bolts required to get that up and running on AMD64.

Just for the records:
On i386 the module also works on 7.2-RELEASE and HP Compaq Presario
V3400 is supported as well.
