Yep.
Depending on your distribution you might find the acpidump binary in a
package. On SUSE it would be the pmtools package. A bit googling should
tell you what package you need to install on your distri to get
acpidump.

Best is you open a bug here:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/
and attach the info you already posted on the list (the dmesg output
with increased ACPI debug output) and the acpidump.
Please add me to CC of the bug then.
Currently there are patches to connect ACPI and graphics driver on the
way, it could be that we miss some support in the kernel of the latter,
I don't know, let's evaluate this a bit further in the bug...

Thanks,
