I've got this issue also. It's on a Toshiba Satellite A665-6051. 10.04 worked okay but 10.10 requires irg=noacpi to boot. Last line while trying to boot is NET: Registered protocol family 1 Not sure what all things are lacking with irq=noacpi since I just tried that, anyway works much better than the acpi=off option.
I'll help if I can, contact me. I can usually patch/build kernels if needed. The howto I found doesn't show how to get the source, I usually use Gentoo so that's all different that what I'm used to.
