I followed the suggestion about using the latest acpi patches on the
stable kernel.

This resolves the problems with the kernel panics when using 'options
PNPBIOS'.  However using ACPI brings its own problems, such panicing when
I go to battery power from mains, or plugging in the memorystick.  I'm not
too bothered about this given that the code is from -current.

Unfortunately the sound still doesn't work though:

pcm0:play:0: play interrupt timeout, channel dead

cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel 82801CA (ICH3)) at io 0x1c00, 0x18c0 irq 9 bufsz 16384 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex)


Is that of any use to anyone? I can provide further testing if necessary..
