Ubuntu laptop



I've setup ubuntu on my laptop and it runs fine, until power management spins down the drive and then anything tries to write to the drive.

I turn acpi off, and then it boots and beeps constantly through the speakers (its the default "welcome" sound stuck in a loop) and it never completes booting.

Any ideas?

The notebook is gateway 7422 a64 3400+ .  I am using ubuntu 5.10 i386 . 

This has to be something obvious that I am missing. 

Thanks
