I finally got around to cleaning up rc.conf, now using only acpi. 'acpiconf -s
1' works. Resume is _much_ faster. That only leaves me with a couple of acpi
boot errors to clean up (they do not affect anything AFAIK) and to set rc.resume
to restore the network connection.

I have some glitches that were also present (or worse) using apm. I would assume
all this works much better on newer hardware.
