some keys are not working in everex cloudbook +intrepid ibex

http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/intrepid/alpha5

After upgrading to this version, some keys might misbehave in X. Please make sure you have set the keyboard model as Generic Evdev-managed keyboard in System → Preferences → Keyboard, in the tab Layouts. If some keys still have problems, please file a bug against xkeyboard-config, and provide the output of setxkbmap -print and xkbcomp :0 - both run in the Terminal.

also seems that i need to boot the kernel with acpi=off or
