I have been running nicely on my presario 2800t for a while, but with
kernel 2.4.18 and a pretty old acpi version. 

So, what better to do on a lazy sunday than try and upgrade to
2.4.21-pre4 and the newest acpi? :) 

Great minds think alike.  I also decided this week-end to update the
kernel on my 2800T, and ran into similar problems as you describe.

Try:

(*snipped changes*) 

Alas, your DSDT do not contains some of the objects not found.  This
is likely because you have SDST tables which contains them.  You need
to force the compilation.

Thanks Bruno!  Those changes worked beautifully.  After ignoring the
"Object does not exist" errors generated by the compile, the produced
dsdt.hex works great.

Kevin: i've placed my modified dsdt.asl on my website:
http://www.wpi.edu/~flicken/linux/laptop/dsdt.asl    It includes the
changes Bruno describes, as well as changes the names to more sensible
things (ie. FAN0 instead of C1D4).

Cheers,
