Hi Serge, Yes, that PPA kernel does indeed fix it. I used the PPA kernel in the guest and it made everything work perfectly. So I'm thinking one of those fixes you mentioned solves the problem.
Note that I am still using the standard Lucid kernel in the host, but I don't think that's relevant since it seems like the issue is in the guest-mode kernel, not the host. In any case, I think it would be very helpful to have those fixes backported to the Lucid kernel, so those running the LTS in their guests can have stable SMP configurations.
