OK, tried with latest xorg-edgers ppa and updates installed with the 2.6.32-rc7 kernel (removed the acpi=off kernel option).
There is *some* progress. The system starts and GDM works. (as before) However when in the gnome session it freezes (as before). However, I am able to switch between tty's.
Turning the acpi=off kernel option on results in something different though. The GDM doesn't load and the screen start flickering with the terminal login.
