I've done some looking through the open PRs and found a match from 5.0-RC which is still open: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/46619 I tried "unset acpi_load" in the boot loader as suggested in the PR but it didn't help. Is this issue likely to be resolved in the near future or would I be better off with the 4.x branch? Thanks, Rob
