Number one piece of advice is to turn off ACPI. There are two specs for acpi - 
one from Intel and one from Microsoft. One of them is open and one is closed 
- can you guess which is which? Anyway, the kernel team are fighting to get 
both supported which occasionally (especially recently) has been breaking 
compatibility with both.

I've been running from 2.6.0-test? kernels for several months now (on -test6)
currently with no problems similar to yours.  I'm attaching my kernel config. 
You can compare yours to mine, and maybe something will pop up.  You can ignore
most of the netfilter stuff, if you don't have a firewall setup.

HTH.
