Hi Christopher, I'm terribly sorry, but since this was posted I no longer own an M1300. 
I do not know what the process for an active bug under these circumstances should be. 
I hope some of these guys who had the same problem can perform the required tests for you.
Cheers.

Title:
  Computer won't boot without acpi=off option

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is an old Motion Computing model M1300 which worked perfectly
  fine in Intrepid, but since Jaunty it hasn't been able to boot (either
  from the live CD or and installation) if the acpi=off is not
  specified. The newest Karmic Alpha 2 hasn't fixed this regression (I
  have only tried the live cd), and as I'm sure you understand, in a
  laptop/tablet pc living without acpi controls is not an option. I'll
  attach a picture of what the screen shows if I remove "quiet splash
  --" from the boot parameters at the point where the boot process
  halts.
