Please try a -current snapshot and report back. If you get it now (before the kernel version moves to 6.1-current) you'll be able to safely update to the proper 6.1 release when it's out. ACPI is really required for modern PC hardware, it is tied up with many aspects of the system including cooling, I would not run a machine for longer than a quick test without it.
