I had to google APIC because I didn't know what is was.  Is it possible
that my laptop doesn't have APIC because it's dual core and not dual
processor?  One site I googled suggested to look at the output
of /proc/interrupts.  Here's my output:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/interrupts

Does this mean that my board has APIC?  Should I still try noapic?
