I apologize for hijacking this bug report, I don't think my issue was
related.  I did think it was when I originally added my post)

I think I found what the cause was for my problem posted at "Comment #15"
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14529#c15
I am putting it here as well in case someone else is looking for an
answer to the issue I described problem.

The kernel option acpi_osi="Linux" used to be the "fix" with my Ubuntu install.

I migrated to Debian with a squeeze/sid installation and the "fix"
stopped working.  I was stumped.

GRUB.

With GRUB 2 you edit '/etc/default/grub' then run 'update-grub'.

This is the line that _is_ working for me:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_osi=\"Linux\""

Note the escape characters.  Previously I wasn't escaping the
quotations therefore the quotes in the kernel option were being
stripped when they were then written to /boot/grub/grub.cfg .
