HP Pavilion dv2000 ACPI Problems

Well, recently I moved in full time to fBSD.
I had problems installing the stable and current versions until one of the latest snapshots.
Now My system boots up, and works "partially fine"
it tends to over-heat even when powerd is set to minimum energy cost.
I´ve loaded all the ACPI modules (even the one for ASUS, even now I´ve got it blacklisted because it caused system instability)
The resume-suspend events do not work either.
There´s also another weird thing, my processor wasnt able to set the frecuency lower than 800mhz (Turion 64x2 TL-52) and the Gnome applet reports most of the time lower spuns(like 100mhz-500mhz).
Also, the disk tends to do some weird noises only while in fBSD.
Performance is bad overall too.
I´m using i386 version of 7.0-STABLE-200807 with the GENERIC kernel.
Also, and another thing I wanted to talk about is b43/bcm43xx driver portability from Linux to BSD, since I´ve got to check that NetBSD and OpenBSD have support for that card, still it´s not work-able in freeBSD, unless you use the evil project (ndis*) wich makes the system unstable, and in my particular case, it doesn´t work at all.

Any help/contribution is welcome, I stand by to see and hear about what further data should I bring in.

Cheers.
