Ok, I've tried kloading vesa with and without hw.acpi.reset_video and both cases make matters worse, I never see the disk activity that suggests that the system is limping along, and the power button doesn't try to do a shutdown. I don't have a serial console, would it be worth trying to set up a firewire console and see if I can get anything out of it. Is the stuff on the dconschat man page accurate enough that I can use it as a cookbook? If I were to go reading through the linux sources and comparing their thoughts w/ the freebsd thoughts, can anyone suggest places to start? Is it likely to be under the acpi code, or the console code, or ??? g.
