You can download the latest SUSE live-CD, there acpi debug is compiled
in.
Or you have to compile a kernel yourself and enable CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y
When booted, unload polling ACPI drivers (to not pollute the logs):
rmmod battery
rmmod ac

Increase ACPI debug level:
echo 0x1F >/sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level
(or even: echo 0x21F >/sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level)
then hit the button and you should see some output.
Interesting e.g. would be if a notification "notify" appears and is sent
to a vendor specific device.

On SUSE, instead of stopping acpid, you can use:
acpi_listen
to log acpi events.
