In facts the acpi routines seem to be there only for an emulation environment they seem to have (had).
But yesterday the button started to work again, I don't know exactly why, I should have touched something useful. About your suggestions: I do have full backup of the entire system partition, but still I need the NAS to boot and have remote access to it to make changes, so I'm very careful when touching things. This is why I don't think I can update it to Debian 7, unless I decide to scratch all LG software and start a clean install, but, yet again, I don't know if this is possible without display and keyboard I/O.
