Adding "hint.acpi.0.disable="1" and hint.apm.0.disable="0" to /boot/device.hints got it working. Thanks. Other than having to put them back if the device is added, is there any problem with removing device.hints lines for drivers that aren't present? On a side note, it's not terribly obvious that these "kernel variables" have to go in device.hints. Loader variables go in loader.conf. But then loader variables configure the kernel at boot time, so the line between the two is really fuzzy.help
