OK people, Change of diagnosis. The problem is: something in the display manager changes something in the BIOS.
That is why I experience the same problems in different partitions too. After I reinstall the aforementioned VGA driver the problem is resolved. That is in all of my partitions but my current one. I confirmed the same problem on an Acer 5050. It is a 64-bit one, but also uses this "VGA" driver thing. To confirm this thing on other Acer machines: The most remarkable thing in Ubuntu is that pidof gdm gives two processes. Also the .xsession- errors was similar on the 5050. Could you please post a sticky for other Aspire users to check this out?
