 Pavel,
 
 unfortunately we have no idea what hardware you're operating so please
 include the following information:
 
 `dmesg'
 `devinfo -r'
 `sysctl hw'
 `sysctl debug.acpi'
 
 and content of /boot/loader.conf
 
 I'm wondering if you made any additions into /boot/device.hints?
 
 As this can be an ACPI or a very hardware specific issue, I'm wondering
 if you've already checked for a BIOS update from your hw vendor?
 
 Thanks!
