The machine in question is at the office so I won't be able to test that particular setup this weekend. I will test removing the listed patches as time permits starting on Monday. It happens every time so there is no problem in reproducing it. I will also test 2.6.18-rc2-mm1 on my home machine which is AMDx2 as well (but a different chipset/MB). -- Paul
