Hi Jeremie,
    thanks for your post,

ACPI should work well though it may require a little DSDT modification
> due to some bugs in the BIOS (AFAIU).


sorry but can you specify why should i need to modify these settings, and
what kind of bugs is there in the BIOS (if you know this)?
Do you know if this is a freeBSD-related problem? With Linux i didn't have
any sort of problem using ACPI (the only modification i've done to normal
use and install is to have used a nolapic option at boot time).

Thanks for your help,
Marco Calviani
