It is a static point along a rapidly moving devlopment branch. It's not expected to work in all cases. see: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.0R/early-adopter.html ACPI is a large and very difficult standard to implement so there are massive changes on it right now. So try -current and then take this to freebsd-current mailing list along with the output of dmesg from a verbose boot (boot -v at the first boot prompt) That should either resolve it or give you the right people to help you. They are really looking to get acpi working properly.
