On Ubuntu Karmic/Jaunty all works fine. It uses speedstep_centrino driver,
which is deprecated, but works with BIOS which have broken voltage tables..

Please attach it to main kernel, otherwise many users have to stay with
Ubuntu :(

See http://bugs.debian.org/638913 for some discussion.
Basically, as you've said, this is a bug in your BIOS. That does not mean
the problem is hopeless --- it is possible for the kernel to work
around well understood BIOS bugs in the worst cases.
So, to move forward on this:
- Please attach output from "dmesg" and from "acpidump" from immediately
after booting.
- The next step would be to contact [email protected] and your
BIOS vendor, to get the bug well documented. If there is information
about the bug already online somewhere, that could be helpful.
- Work with the linux-acpi@ people to come up with corrected ACPI tables.
Make them available.
- Finally, if the BIOS vendor is uncooperative, come up with a patch to
add a "quirk" to use an appropriate hard-coded table to match the
detected (through DMI, I guess) system. Or add a kernel command line
argument to switch between tables, and a tool to detect the right
table at run time.
Hope that helps,
Jonathan
