If you load ibm-acpi at bootup through something the like of
/etc/modules.autoload.d/ (Gentoo) or /etc/modules (Debian), try giving
the parameters in the same line.

If it's some power management setup script, try figuring how ibm-acpi
get's loaded. I guess it's loaded via insmod, which doesn't respect
things in /etc/modprobe.conf .
