Hmm, I think these two problems are the same; i.e. Embedded Controller problem.
Could you get ACPI data from your machine, like
 # acpidump -o Compaq_1700.dsdt > Compaq_1700.asl
and send them (plus boot -v dmesg) to acpi-jp@jp.freebsd.org ?

It's very easy to disable ACPI, but I think we had better to improve our
ACPI implementation :-)
Because newer Intel-based machines (not only Laptops) have become
strongly depending on ACPI.

Thanks
