I have one of these new Dells as well; same problems here. I don't see a way to make Intrepid usable without disabling acpi completely. (...and losing a CPU.)
To answer a question above: a lot of the ICH10 support is fairly new.
I'm not convinced that the real problem isn't in Dell's firmware. I have the A02 bios released on 25 February 2009, as, I suspect, does the original reporter.
