Acpi is being loaded for you, but it seems you have no thermal support. Check the handbook and the website you mentioned for info about DSDT. You want to do a acpidump, and maybe get the mptable too, then start compiling to check for errors in there code. I think you may find this to be the case. You should forward this thread to the freebsd-acpi@freebsd.org list and maybe start one at sourceforge. Besure to upload a DSDT too, it may make getting help at sourceforge and that is what they would likily need. >>some asus products mentioned.
