I'm sorry, but "recent 2.6.24-rc kernels" unfortunately is a statement almost as broad as "there's a violent fire in India, please come and rescue us!", given that this very issue has been handled with lots of activity by Tejun Heo recently (see bug #9530 and http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/12/9/184 for details). 2.6.24-rc6 is the version that has all ACPI IDE fixes in a state that made my system fully work, so there should be a sizeable chance that it works for you, too, hopefully. What's interesting is that you're ALi-based, whereas I'm VIA-based, so your problem might still be unsupported by -rc6 after all. > Dmesg of the failing kernel after first hibernation (version is untouched > e697789d64f8748cb219d7f5c413c512953802cc, i.e. current 2.6.24-rc6): ^^^^^^^^^ Argh, just saw this at the very last moment, IOW if this is _really_ -rc6+ already then we certainly do have a problem. Disassembled ACPI BIOS AML code (DSDT) of your machine would be very useful in this case, I'm afraid (done via acpidump and iasl, search the internet for pointers). lspci -x or better -xxx of the IDE device would be very useful, too.
