Thank you Yurij.
Does  your system behave any differently when booted with this?:

acpi_osi=Linux

please e-mail me the output from acpidump.

thanks,

Thanks for the acpidump
Looks a lot like that on the Quanta boards from HP...

We need to disable OSI(Linux) on this box if we want
the proposd PNP0C32 to work.

PHNP0C32 looks for OSTB == 0x40, which this code clobbers,
so OSI(Linux) will disable that:
