this might be caused by a broken DSDT. Have you had a look at yours?
Check the HOWTO linked from http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/ for info
on how to get and decompile it. You can add it to the DSDT database at
the same URL, if you like, so others can have a look.

First step would be to get it to compile, then to find out what (if
anything) is wrong with it.

Cheers
