--- Comment #8 from Alan <a...@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>  2009-03-26 12:01:55 ---
acpi=off changes which BIOS data is used for interrupt routing (and the fact it
fixes it means we have a much clearer idea of where to look)

irqpoll tells the kernel to assume the interrupt data on the PC is wrong and
take alternative measures (at a small performance hit) and is the emergency
sledgehammer for dealing with systems where there isn't a Linux problem and the
vendor isn't updating their BIOS.

As this goes away without ACPI I'll reassign this to the ACPI people (and fix
the -vmware tag). It could equally be a buggy BIOS however but we shall see
