You don't *have* to remove it from your kernel, but you might as well,
because it won't work with acpica in there.

Note too that I've found acpica can cause some other devices not to
work as well:

    % grep 'could not\|cannot' /var/run/dmesg.boot
    viapropm0: could not allocate bus space
    fdc0: cannot reserve I/O port range

The devel/acpicatools port gets you:

    % pkg_info -L acpicatools\*
    Information for acpicatools-20030523.0:
   =20
    Files:
    /usr/local/bin/acpicadb
    /usr/local/bin/iasl
    /usr/local/bin/acpidump
    /usr/local/man/man8/acpidump.8.gz

And that's the only acpi related port available.  I guess you need 5.x
for acpiconf(8).  There's a bunch of acpi sysctls you could play with,
but I've no idea what could be done using them.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
