I have found this: 
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=RMIE-3AXE3E 
? Is it right? Is this the program or I must run it on a Windows machine 
for create the boot floppy?

I have tried acpi=off, and the usb pen worked perfectly... Latest 
Knoppix (4.0.2), by default, use apm instead acpi on this laptop.
Various pci=... parameter doesn't make usb to work, if acpi is enabled.

Thank you very much to everyone :)
