@Ash - Thanks for your solution. It works great (up until now I've been using the noapic linux kernel option). And it works even better than the noapic solution, because somehow, more applications were crashing with noapic = apport was more active and always ended with some "lack of ram" error message, though more than 2 free GBs were always available. In addition noapic worked only sometimes (was random), thought there was a great chance the system will boot up on the second time, after entering the default boot option in grub (not sure why).
This blacklist works great, no problems yet. Seems more stable and has no problems booting.
