You mentioned that your system is an older laptop, and you're setting "acpi=on" in your boot arguments. What happens when you omit "acpi=on"? Do you get a message saying something to the effect of your system being too old for ACPI? Does everything still work as it ought?
I'm still working on this one. See http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2375 for more details.
