It sounds like it's working fine under 5.0/5.1, if you keep ACPI turned 
off. Although the lack of ACPI/APM on a laptop is a major annoyance, 
FreeBSD is working.

ACPI is a relatively new feature of FreeBSD. It still has some rough 
edges. My suggestion is to take this off of the -newbies list (since 
the charter is 'no technical questions') and concentrate on ACPI on the 
-questions, -mobile or -hardware lists.
