Advanced Configuration and Power Interface[^]. For the latter, no idea, try asking on a Linux forum. At a guess, I would expect that power management would stop working.

ACPI primarily controls on-board interfaces at the motherboard by detecting when they are idle and reducing or disconnecting power from them until the OS calls the related services. If you have ACPI enabled, and are running an OS that attempts to control power saving itself, sometimes there is a conflict. Windows 2000 and earlier were famous for screwing up computers with ACPI capability because there were two incompatible schemes trying to control the same functions. The soultion was to disable ACPI in BIOS and let Windows handle it. If you are running a version of Linux that has power conservation functions built in, you may find it works more reliably when acpi-off is specified.
