Interesting.

I'm running RELENG_5 on this machine, is there any way that I could test
any code?  In particular the acpi_video DPMS patch you mention; is that
compatible with 5?

I've got the following ACPI modules loaded:

 4    1 0xc09f3000 4d98     acpi_video.ko
 5   16 0xc09f8000 53828    acpi.ko
 6    1 0xc0a4c000 25b4     acpi_sony.ko

The acpi_sony one I (trivially) ported to 5 myself.

This is the list of acpi sysctl variables that appear:
