After digging deeper into hal and it's scripts I found the root cause
for the problem in

hal (0.5.10-5ubuntu2) hardy; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/88_change_pm_quirk_policy.patch: Change default pm 
    quirk policy to match previous Ubuntu behaviour.

The above patch breaks the logic of the QUIRK checking code and defaults to 
applying several quirks. This is the opposite of the upstream logic and
will make a lot of upstream submitted quirks (fdi files) unusable.

In my case I defined a quirk for my noteboook for
  --quirk-vbestate-restore
The patch adds
  --quirk-dpms-on
  --quirk-vbemode-restore
  --quirk-vga-mode3
  --quirk-vbe-post
  --quirk-reset-brightness
if NOT explicitly set to false. I wasn't able to find a correletion of these 
default quirks and the old mechanisms in /etc/default/acpi-support for 
disabling it.
