Ian is right, but u may want to disable acpi too:
/boot/device.hints:

#FOR ACPI
### APM vs ACPI
hint.apm.0.disabled="1"
hint.acpi.0.disabled="0"

#FOR APM
### APM vs ACPI
hint.apm.0.disabled="0"
hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"

(of course, the rest of the lines in device.hits shouldn't need to be changed.
