Hi people, I have googled for this problem and I found that it isn't at all a fault of the Ubuntu team, but rather a industry lack of respect to the ACPI specification. The hardware manufacturers should follow this standard closely, but they don't. It's a shame, and because of this we're having all this trouble. The main problem is that they use many differents non-standard DSDT tables, and the Linux distros in general only follow the ACPI standard DSDT table. You can try a workaround on this by finding your motherboard DSDT table and inserting it in your distro configuration. I'd recommend these sites:

I'll try later cause I'm upgrading to Feisty now.
