I have the same here. Roughly 3-4 instances of this message per second in syslog. I noticed something in the boot log:

I copied the firmware over into /lib/firmware/2.6.17-10-generic (extracted for previous kernel versions with bcm43xx-fwcutter), rmmod'd and modprobe'd bcm43xx, but I'm still getting the messages. -- [Edgy] APIC error on CPU0 https://launchpad.net/bugs/65159 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
