Thanks for the input - but decided to rely on OpenSolaris, tried testing with acpi disabled through the kernel, the commands were accepted, but acpi came through the BIOS anyway. OpenBSD is about 1 year behind FreeBSD in chipset support, and about 4 years behind RHEL and other Linux distros. So OpenBSD will be shelved. OpenSolaris is improving constantly - and so is FreeBSD. OpenBSD is a dead issue, maybe someday they will catch up to the 21st century........................
