The KMS stuff will probably come after 9-RELEASE.

Not a solution to your problem, but a data point: I have a WD Passport 750GB (2.5") drive with an UFS filesystem on it. I don't think I've tried shutdown with the drive mounted, but I've experienced no problems after the drive has spun down, including umount. There is just a delay while it spins up. This is on 8.2-REL/i386, that is, with the new USB stack.

In a hurry I put all uhci, ohci and ehci, with ukbd also. What of this in necessary for kb? I suppose ehci and ukbd. Keyboards are low speed, so ohci and uhci; see ukbd(4). Btw, after usb addage, I have strange 3 seconds freeze in X, once it's up. Not at the start, but some 2-5 minutes later. Branch 8. Not enough information to tell.
