Re-including list, hope that's okay.

That is possible.

Check if your specific laptop requires loading of a acpi_*
module - I had to do this on a Lenovo laptop in order to get
the internal SD card reader working. In your case, try:

	# kldload acpi_toshiba.ko

or add the corresponding entry to /boot/loader.conf:

	acpi_toshiba_load="YES"

After system restart, check for a da device corresponding to
the card reader.
