% grep APIC /usr/src/linux-2.5.69/.config CONFIG_X86_GOOD_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_UP_IOAPIC=y CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_IO_APIC=y
but 'dmesg' on my Dell Latitude C840 laptop tells me:
Dell Latitude with broken BIOS detected. Refusing to enable the local APIC.
Is this nmi_watchdog="forget about it dave" time, or is there some way to get this to work? [unhandled content-type:application/pgp-signature] | |
