I think you will find that this is a problem with the basic design, not the APIC. Just like my COMPAQ Presario 1800, everything on the PCI bus shares the same interrupt.
You can recompile the kernel for SMP. This will guarantee that the kernel initializes the APIC (at least up to version 2.4.1).
If you find that everything is still on the same IRQ, that's the way it is, only one PWB trace going to the devices.

Penguin : Linux version 2.4.1 on an i686 machine (799.53 BogoMips).
I was going to compile a list of innovations that could be attributed to Microsoft. Once I realized that Ctrl-Alt-Del was handled in the BIOS, I found that there aren't any.
