Keyboard response, mouse movements, display refreshing etc. General input/display sluggishness. Did something break IRQ handling somewhere? I need to validate if this happens with X not running also if it is i915 related somehow. The behavor is noticed in a console login however. > > > > > > > > Device: Lenovo W500 laptop > > > > > > Hi Shawn, > > > > > > Unhandled interrupts is the problem. > > > > > > Is the device below being id'd properly? > > > If you remove this device, does the problem go away? > > > > Does either of the kernels in question have commit 0f815a0a700b (USB: > > UHCI: fix IRQ race during initialization)?

There were a lot of changes to PCI and ACPI for 3.9. Probably best to each file a bug at bugzilla.kernel.org with: Last known good kernel version -- For both good and bad kernels (preferably as attachments) -- /proc/interrupts lsusb lspci dmesg and reply back with the bugzilla #. It may be necessary to bisect this problem. Regards, Peter Hurley PS - I know it can be difficult to get those things on the bad kernel. It's easier if you boot to console.
