Praedor, I know I'm not expert enough to help you with your problem, but I
thought I'd throw this in - with APIC turned on or off, dmesg always has
these 2 lines:
Local APIC disabled by BIOS -- reenabling.
Found and enabled local APIC!
Thats with the 9.0 powerpack, stock kernel, on my Soyo Dragon Plus
motherboard.
