In my case, I believe the problem is that my motherboard is so old (a
FIC-6110), that although Ubuntu sees it as ACPI compatible, it really isn't.
Other problems I've had are probably also due to this old motherboard, which I
plan to replace.
The Motherboard's BIOS has other problems in that, even with LBA turned on, it
cannot handle drives larger than about 120gb, no matter what settings I put in
for hard drive characteristics. Apparently, this MOBO & BIOS cannot handle
the number of clusters (using LBA) on drives larger than about 120-130GB.
My workaround for my 320GB drive, was to partition it split into 30GB and 290GB
and set the BIOS up as though for a 30GB drive and install Ubuntu, and later
move the /home folder to the 290GB partition and say "the heck with it - it
works now". Once the system is booted up using the 30GB partition, the OS
(Ubuntu) can handle the 290GB partition where the /home folder is, and seems to
be having no problems now. I'm up to Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 now.
Thanks for asking.

Thanks for your contribution to this bug report. I see that the last
release on which that bug could be reproduced is Feisty. Can someone
reproduce that issue with latest Hardy / Gutsy release? In my case,
using AMD64 release, I can't reproduce this bug with Gutsy or Hardy so I
suspect that this bug is not fixed.
