It might be time to have a look at the kernel-parameters.txt file. It
shows you the options you can pass. It's bound to be somewhere on-line
you can find with Google, if you don't have a working system to read it
on (it's from the kernel-doc package). There's various options for ACPI
that you might want to try, like forcing it on or off.
acpi= [HW,ACPI] Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
Format: { force | off | ht | strict | noirq }
force -- enable ACPI if default was off
off -- disable ACPI if default was on
noirq -- do not use ACPI for IRQ routing
ht -- run only enough ACPI to enable Hyper Threading
strict -- Be less tolerant of platforms that are not
strictly ACPI specification compliant.
See also Documentation/pm.txt, pci=noacpi
