SOmeone on Club reported that they had success just building a custom kernel from the 9.2 kernel source and disabling the Local APIC. It *should* be possible (AFAIK) to have the same effect by booting with the 'nolapic' option, but I haven't seen any reports of whether it helps or not, and haven't been able to test with any of our Dell machines.
