Hi Mate,
make sure you remove acpi=off and check if it work.
Worked for me yesterday when installing a new Laptop of a friend.
However - I don't know if the suspend stuff works - at least we could see the
battery charge level etc. and hitting the powerbutton performs a clean
shutdown.
Anyone here with ACPI managed to use the suspend to RAM/Disk stuff ???
Thx & Cheers
Joerg
