Thinkpad 600e interrupt storm

Okay, it looks like the beginning of the end.
After doing a bit more reading I found a few settings that might work
to solve my interrupt storm problem.
First and foremost I want to thank everyone who has been helping me on
the list. You patience and understanding is gratefully appreciated.
Unfortunately my ignorance is the biggest problem in all of this.
Here is what happened. I could not get Matt's smapi program to work for
me. Most likely because it has to be extracted and made in a specific
way. I never had the /sys/module/bios/smapi that he mentioned. I tried
extracting it again and ended up with the same result. Most likely there
is some easy step I missed. Unfortunately I don't really know how to
code or understand the structure behind FreeBSD or any other OS.
I went back to google and found a few pages that had a tip here and a
tip there. I also found a bit of information on getting the sound card
to work. I also have the OLDCARD section commented out. I am using the
NEWCARD stuff that comes with GENERIC. So here is the kernel:
#
# GENERIC -- Generic kernel configuration file for FreeBSD/i386
#
# For more information on this file, please read the handbook section on
# Kernel Configuration Files:
#
#
http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-config.html
#
# The handbook is also available locally in /usr/share/doc/handbook
# if you've installed the doc distribution, otherwise always see the
# FreeBSD World Wide Web server (http://www.FreeBSD.org/) for the
# latest information.
#
# An exhaustive list of options and more detailed explanations of the
# device lines is also present in the ../../conf/NOTES and NOTES files.
# If you are in doubt as to the purpose or necessity of a line, check first
# in NOTES.

okay then I went for a modification on /boot/device.hints . This shut
off acpi and turned on apmd. I am not sure what the big deal on this
issue is but you can sure get mail going back and forth on acpi and apm
issues. Here is /boot/device.hints :

Okay the I went and did make buildkernel and make installkernel. I
figured I had nothing to lose. I almost did a back flip when I saw it
boot and no interrupt storms. Here is the dmesg:

I am not sure if this is a final acceptable solution, so I submit this
for approval. I know there is a ton of information here. However I don't
want to leave something important out. Thanks again everyone. Let me know.
