In this case, the problematic 2.5.74 patch you're referring to is NOT the culprit. His machine is a P3 not P4, and we've _always_ force-enabled the local APICs for all P6/K7-family processors. The 2.5.74 patch only affects P4s. (I'm thinking about a lapic/nolapic pair of kernel command-line options, and possibly changing the P4 default to only enable if lapic was on the command line. That should solve the issues with local APIC + ACPI in broken BIOSen.) ... >> IBM Thinkpad X30 ... >> processor : 0 >> vendor_id : GenuineIntel >> cpu family : 6 >> model : 11 >> model name : Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) III CPU - M 1200MHz >> stepping : 4 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
