Adding "hint.acpi.0.disable=3D"1" and hint.apm.0.disable=3D"0" to /boot/device.hints got it working. Thanks. Other than having to put = them back if the device is added, is there any problem with removing = device.hints lines for drivers that aren't present? On a side note, it's not terribly obvious that these "kernel variables" = have to go in device.hints. Loader variables go in loader.conf. But then = loader variables configure the kernel at boot time, so the line between the two = is really fuzzy.
