i just "backported" the patch to edgy's kernel (by doing nothing at all) and it seems to work nicely there too.
further: i've tested the kernel on my PC and the quirk isn't enabled (giving some indication that my DMI detection stuff is legit). perhaps this patch is also a good candidate for the edgy-updates kernel (if you have one planned) -- Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work! https://launchpad.net/bugs/54621 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
