My Dell Latitude D820 will not boot with this kernel unless I add the
option hpet=disable. Otherwise, the startup gets to the place where
it says it found 2 CPUs and it lists out some iomem ports that are
unavailable, and it stops. The system is locked up then, I don't know
of a way to save the output to show you. I do not think any entries
are added in /var/log/messages, but as I dig into the messages file, I
find lines that are similar to what is showing on the screen when the
startup dies.

On the good side, with hpet=disable, the system runs fine, and suspend
to RAM works in both level 3 and 5 with the Nvidia video proprietary
drivers and either iwl3945 or ipw3945.
So, again I say, what is this hpet pain in the ass all about?
