Ok,

I think I found the solution. First I've compiled a new kernel (I used
the linux-source-2.6.24 package from the sid repository) without the
deprecated asus_acpi module. Second I've installed the asus_acpid which
comes with acpi4asus: http://acpi4asus.sourceforge.net/

I adjusted the scripts to meet my needs and added some more for the
buttons on the side of the laptop and it works fine.

I will try the generic sid kernel without the asus_acpi module in my
/etc/modules some other day, maybe this will do as well.
