For this purpose, you don't need to worry about udev.  That's a user-space
thing, and if you get far enough to run into udev failures, you already know
that ACPI is working.

The https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/343675 report is
particularly interesting because it has the same BIOS version as you.  If you
could lay hands on an Ubuntu 9.04 CD and try that, that would be a good start. 
You shouldn't need to do a full install -- just a live CD should be fine.

Another thing to look at is your BIOS SETUP settings.  If there's a "reset
everything to defaults", please try that.

Per Len Brown, the outb() triggers SMM (a special part of the BIOS), and the
hang is most likely in that SMM code, which is very difficult to debug.

I think the console info you have now is fine; no need to worry about
netconsole or serial console.

I've been working a lot of problems at the intersection of PCI and ACPI, but in
this case, I think the transparent bridge problem is unrelated to the ACPI
enable problem.

The DSDT _CRS error you see is one of those things at the intersection of PCI
and ACPI, but the hang happens long before we would look at that information.
