You have to use the acpi_video(4) driver (kldload acpi_device or 'device 
acpi_video').  Your BIOS also has to provide video control via ACPI.

You can also try http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/patches/dpms.patch (you'll need 
to either add 'device dpms' to your kernel config or build dpms.ko and 
kldload it).  It is a committable version of the old DPMS patch that uses 
VESA DPMS to turn off the monitor on suspend and turn it back on on resume.
