Below is an untested patch to address this issue. The patch also applies cleanly to kernel 2.6.5, which is what I am running.= =20 The machine is now running for more than 21 hours with APIC enabled and it= =20 seems it is completely stable now. Without the patch I was able to lock the= =20 system solid in less than a minute by just pushing some MB of data across t= he=20 LAN. I have been running continuous network copies of a 400MB file for abou= t=20 8 hours and experienced no problems. As a side note: the idle CPU temperature reported by ACPI on my Shuttle=20 iDeq200N barebone has gone from approx. 50 degrees down to approx. 43=20 degrees.
