@swordfish:
Option 2 is the way to go, that warning about the 8254 timer can be safely
ignored.
"Your BIOS does not provide ACPI _PSS objects in a way that Linux
understands" almost always means that Cool 'n Quiet has been disabled in
the BIOS. This kernel message also isn't really an error, it just tells
that the kernel will not use CPUFREQ powernow-k8 support because Cool 'n
Quiet has been disabled, so it's doing exactly what is requested.
Unfortunately the Ubuntu people chose to built-in the powernow-k8
module, so there's no way to prevent powernow-k8 from being loaded, what
may be exactly what you want...
