Under Fedora I use the kernel parameter of nox2apic
Perhaps there is a similar one for Debian.

Title:
  [Lenovo W520] laptop freezes on ACPI-related actions

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

  I got the latest Ubuntu installed on a Lenovo W520 with graphics set
  to Nvidia discrete card. The laptop freezes, however, on power-
  management actions, such as brightness change and sleep/wake-up. A
  particularly annoying problem is that the machine freezes
  automatically after a GUI login if I had started gnome-power-manager
  previously. I have to remove the gnome-power-manager settings
  directory in order to get back in.

  If I boot with acpi=off parameter to the kernel things work fine, but
  then again no ACPI functionality is available.
