Try disabling acpi. Remove the word 'quiet' from the kernel line and replace it with 'acpi=off' while booting. I am not a software engineer but my hands-on experience with kubuntu has taught me this. In any case, there is no harm trying my suggestion. Kubuntu 7.10 worked without any such modification on my machine (Acer laptop aspire 5052), but when I installed 8.04 I had to modify the kernel command line as above.
