I have a dv9000 with turion 64 X2.   Running 64 bit Ubuntu, kernel
2.6.20-16 with the same results.

I have tried all suggested alternatives, but I am currently booting with
" noapic nosmp", which sacrifices one core.  However doing this resolves
the interrupt problem, which lowers CPU usage to 3% when idle, and
allows frequency scaling to work (and hence makes the system usable as a
laptop).

Everything I have tried works, (including wireless through ndiswrapper);
so until this issue is resolved (kernel is fixed upstream), I will
continue to boot with nosmp.  Without this option the CPUs get wasted
servicing interrupts, so disabling one CPU actually makes the system
faster (and usable!).
