I'm bumping this. Any movement from upstream or wherever it needs to

be ideal for me
Oh, well I find that workaround unpalatable, but I guess it's all I got

Well, I thought it was fixed, but I had to reboot due to a power outage,
and now I only have one core active (as seen through /proc/cpuinfo).
I haven't upgraded to Jaunty yet, I was planning on doing a reinstall
with x86_64, to see if that makes a difference. I'll let you know what
results I get.

OK, after setting the kernel line with "noapic" and removing "splash",

although... the real first boot gave me some dreaded "not responding"
