the ACPI/BIOS stuff.

I can't track the cause of the corruption right now, but i suspect is
triggered by the suspend itself (maybe when is suspend overnight) i have to
test, but can confirm the trick can solve the problem untill it occur again
(sometimes after few ours, sometimes it last for 3/4 days).
