Here are 2 dmidecode outputs as suggested in dmesg messages: one after acpi_osi=!Linux parameter passed to a kernel and another before. By the way I see messages "MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC" at every boot if it helps somehow. I use laptop Dell Inspiron 1501 with F7. kernel-2.6.22.9-91.fc7 for x86_64 Please respond if You take the material into Your consideration. Best regards, Stanislav Kooshnikov
