You don't *have* to remove it from your kernel, but you might as well, because it won't work with acpica in there. Note too that I've found acpica can cause some other devices not to work as well: % grep 'could not\|cannot' /var/run/dmesg.boot viapropm0: could not allocate bus space fdc0: cannot reserve I/O port range The devel/acpicatools port gets you: % pkg_info -L acpicatools\* Information for acpicatools-20030523.0: Files: /usr/local/bin/acpicadb /usr/local/bin/iasl /usr/local/bin/acpidump /usr/local/man/man8/acpidump.8.gz And that's the only acpi related port available. I guess you need 5.x for acpiconf(8). There's a bunch of acpi sysctls you could play with, but I've no idea what could be done using them.

If I press the power button, the system shutsdown correctly, the monitor shuts off after 30 minutes, etc. I have a laptop that I'm not using 5.1, but 4.9 instead (for reasons, see previous posts re: mouse). According to the FreeBSD handbook, I can implement ACPI in 4.9 (rather than APM) by simply adding device acpi to the kernel configuration. I tried this and get: device acpi unknown Close, but no cigar.
