Ubuntu 8.04 does not boot on my Sony vaio

[Olnex]

The live cd does not boot, it always gives me:
ACPI: EC: acpi_ec_wait timeout, status = 0, expected_event = 1
EC: read timeout, command = 128
If I use battery, it boots, then I can plug in the power.

this is a bug:

The solution is to remove quiet option.

however, after I remove the quiet option, it gives me another error:
[17.896085] ACPI Error(something-0537): Method parse /execution
failed I\_SB_.PCIO.LPCB.EC__._REG](Node f7c4af18), AE_TIME
[17.896783] pnp: PnP ACPI init
... something here ...
[18.450851] ACPI: bus type pnp registered

Then the system hangs, any keys can not help, I can only hold the power button to force the machine shutdown and reboot.

A few weeks ago, I installed it and got this problem, but it occurs only sometimes, however, now, it seems this problem occurs every time I boot.

I haven't tried to disable ACPI

I came across this (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/191137) bug report, seems to effect the sony vaio users, I only skimmed through the report but looks like recompiling your kernel and adding the patch that was attached to the bug report could work.
