(...) To me looks like a problem with ACPI... how about booting the system by appending to the kernel line "acpi=off"? This will completely disable ACPI subsystem which is not good for your computer's health but maybe we can have a clue here. In addition, is this problem happening after a fresh installation or just came after a system or hardwrae update? I would also test with a LiveCD (either from Debian or another distribution) to see if it behaves the same.
