The problem still exists in 7.1-RELEASE. Which make and model notebook is this? You have my sympaties, my own laptop[1] (Acer Aspire 5672) have the same sort of problem - drivers for NICs (both wired and wireless) will not attach if acpi is enabled. And this laptop gets too hot when acpi is disabled - I fear it will overheat. Linux runs fine[2] on it. I had a lot of help in trying to fix the problem a wbile back (check the freebsd-mobile mailing list archives), but in the end, nothing helped. I can only offer general advice, not a solution. Try too look for a modfified DSDT for your notebook, perhpas you will find something that helps.
