There have been a lot of reports on this list of X causing freezes with apm, many of which seem to be fixed by upgrading to Xfree86 4.0... I myself have had problems with apm (as well as problems getting phdisk making a giant ugly file in my freebsd partition, instead of the dos one I specifically made for that purpose), as well as experiencing the freezes in X. When not in X, zzz DOES work for me, although it seems to go down, up, down, and then on restore, up, down, up. I'm very new to laptops in general, never mind running an alternative OS one one, and I am not qualified to speculate on why X would cause this problem in freebsd and not in linux, but you might try upgrading X (if you dare) before jumping to conclusions.
