Unfortunately, I'm no longer administering the system in question and so don't have a Xeon cpu to test it out on. I still have access to the machine, but it has been rolled back to 2.6.25 due to intermittent soft lockups occuring in 2.6.26. I've been meaning to report these, but I'm not sure if I really have enough useful information on what's causing them.
