yes, for core2 duo, intel_idle should not probe,
and acpi_idle should probe.  "dmesg | grep idle" on a successful
boot should show this.

Ditto for i7300_idle -- which should only probe for a system
with an i7300 (Xeon server) chip-set.

Best to stick with CONFIG_NO_HZ=y, as the CONFIG_NO_HZ=n case
is probably subject to bit-rot, and thus there have been proposals
to delete it entirely.

I can't explain why nolapic would help when nolapic_timer does not help,
unless the fact that you have nolapic disables SMP -- but you report
that maxcpus=1 does not help, so that is a mystery.

we are touching on timer/idle issues, so please try with "idle=poll"
and see if that helps.

would be helpful if you can attach the complete working/failing configs.
