Thank you for your interest !
What kind of hardware (processor, chip-set) are you using?
CPU: Core 2 Duo [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Chipset: Intel MCP51 (see below for details !)
So, it seems your problem is not related to mine. And, since you have a dual
core CPU, it needs the local apic, as far as I understand. The kernel parameter
I mentioned is not applicable in your case.
What is the result of the following commands?
cat /proc/cpuinfo
lspci -vv
cat /proc/interrupts
For example, my notebook with AMD Turion 64 processor on an ATI RS480
IXP SB400 chip-set running with acpi needs the kernel parameter
'nolapic' or the clock would stop in CPU power state C3.
Since my first e-mail "Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = 51799116882
ns)", I enabled ACPI in the mainboard bios (MSI P6N SLI Platinum), but I
don't reaalyknow anything about ACPI.
Before that, I had some ACPI related warning/error messages, it seems
they have disapered since I enabled ACPI.
Here are the results of the command you asked:

In the LOC line you can see the local timer interrupts. In case your system
slows down, maybe you could see some anomalies there or in the first line,
interrupt 0: "IO-APIC-edge timer", but I'm not an expert on this.
