    "medicated snail mode". Lol.

    The "IRQ9: nobody cared" things are not unheard of. The Mac Mini had the
    same issue, and in that case it was because the firmware on that machine
    was just broken, and didn't re-enable ACPI mode correctly on resume. We
    worked around it by forcing a re-enable by hand, so that _exact_ issue
    isn't going to be your problem (or it would work since 2.6.18), but it's
    not unlikely that there is some other SCI setup that could have been
    missed.

    One thing that is often worth testing is to try with APIC support if you
    don't have it already, or if you do have it, try _without_ APIC support.
    The firmware generally is only tested against MS operating systems, so
    it's only ever been tested for the particular irq setup that Windows tends
    to use, and as a result sometimes things work better in one more or
    another.

    Based on the "fasteoi", you're obviously right now using the APIC, and
    that's _usually_ the mode that works better. But just in case, try booting
    with "noapic".

    Also, can you send out the boot log with APIC information ("apic=debug").
    Of course, don't disable the apic for that case, or it won't be very
    useful ;)
