I have the same problem running feisty x86_64 on a Mac Pro. 2.6.20-13.21 fails with a similar dmesg log.

When I boot this kernel and run gnome, I get "Failed to initialize HAL". Networking fails, and Suspend and Hibernate are unavailable from the Quit dialog.

Blacklisting sbs fixes the HAL, network and Suspend/Hibernate problems, but the kernel oops is still in the dmesg log (attached).

When sbs is blacklisted, running 'strace modprobe sbs' freezes at "read(4, "8448 1 asus_acpi, Live 0xfffffff"..., 1024) = 1024 \n nanosleep({0, 100000000}'

None of these problems occur with 2.6.20-12.20.
