I own the IBM ThinkPad 600X notebook.  The acpi(4) and acpi_video(4)
both work, but this beast doesn't even probe.

Does anyone have an explanation why acpi_ibm doesn't get probed on
this notebook?  My devinfo has the IBM0068 device listed (see below),
but for some reason this device doesn't get passed to the acpi_ibm's
probe method.
