OTOH I specifically *enabled* it with "athcool on" (which implies ACPI is on) and it never gave me a problem. And know what? I also have (apparently) local APIC irq routing enabled: $ cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 9421499 IO-APIC-edge timer 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 4: 8179 IO-APIC-edge lirc_serial 7: 93 IO-APIC-edge parport0 8: 1 IO-APIC-edge rtc 9: 0 IO-APIC-level acpi 15: 369 IO-APIC-edge ide1 18: 783785 IO-APIC-level em8300 19: 1919263 IO-APIC-level eth0, Skystar2 20: 0 IO-APIC-level ohci_hcd 21: 0 IO-APIC-level ohci_hcd NMI: 0 LOC: 9417805 ERR: 0 MIS: 0 I have the usual dxr3 problems but *never* a complete lockup (crossing fingers). Usually I can either restart vdr by blindly pressing the remote keys, or wait for the vdr timeout to kick in. Very rarely I have to login to the vdr machine and issue a "killall -KILL vdr", but even in those cases vdr happily restarts.
