Sorry, forgot to say that lspci -nnxxxx should also be run as root.
(To get complete PCI config space.)

Thanks.

Ok.

This reminds me on some Gigabyte mainboards (for which we couldn't
root cause the problem). The workaround for those boards was to boot
with acpi_skip_timer_override.

The Gigabyte mainboards had some odd lapic_id settings and yours too:

This should rather look like

[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x01] lapic_id[0x00] enabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x02] lapic_id[0x01] enabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x03] lapic_id[0x02] enabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x04] lapic_id[0x03] enabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x05] lapic_id[0x04] enabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x06] lapic_id[0x05] enabled)
[ 0.000000] ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x06] address[0xfec00000] gsi_base[0])
[ 0.000000] IOAPIC[0]: apic_id 6, version 33, address 0xfec00000, GSI 0-23

(That's from my system -- also ASUSTek, but different model.)

So can you please provide "lspci -xxxx" (as root) and try another test
-- boot .38 with acpi_skip_timer_override kernel parameter.

And please add also "apic=debug show_lapic=all" and provide dmesg
of that test run.


Thanks,
Andreas
