Tormod, just to confirm, I have experienced no system hangs of the type
described above in either Gutsy or Hardy, and I no longer need to use
the noapic option. It seems that the behaviour detected by the kernel
is no longer harmful.

hangs, windows become unresponsive without noapic
Thanks. If the message is just the kernel noticing there is a bug in the
BIOS, that's ok.

With Gutsy and now Hardy kernels, I no longer need to use the noapic
option, as per Tormod's question above. However I still get the same
MP-BIOS error when booting. I conclude from this that there is some
kind of successful workaround in the kernel.
I think this bug should be marked solved.
Have any of you tried the 2.6.22 kernel from Gutsy? (Without the noapic
option of course)

I have Feisty on a Toshiba A75-S206 with the same symptoms: MP-BIOS
bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC at boot, hangs constantly from
1 to 10 minutes after logging in X. I can confirm that adding noapic
to boot options fixes the problem.

Just to confirm, but I have had no hangs in the month or so since I
added noapic to my boot options.

I have the exact same problem with the Toshiba A75-226 I will try the noapic
because I too cannot use Feisty reliably. However, my lockups are so random
as to be rediculious. However, It does sound like my hard drive is going offline
and not coming back.

added noapic to boot command line and have been up for two hours
the longest I have been up on this laptop.
Note that I never had the apic problem with edgy for whatever reason.
And I havent had any lockups with Nvidia cards on Desktops. Only this

Thanks, can you attach the output from sudo dmidecode as well, in
order to precisely identify your hardware?

Hi Tormod;
The /var/log/dmesg is attached below. This is the Feisty - working I
hope - /var/log/dmesg. I can fetch the Edgy one as well if you like,
from two days ago.
