Hello,
I am having trouble booting ASUS F5V with Ubuntu 8.10 on battery. If I use the options "noapic noacpi nolapic" together, it boots, but I only see one core. (Intel Core Duo CPU)
I read that "The problem with using "noapic" is it makes it impossible for the two cores to communicate, since the APIC sends interrupts between the two cores. So you only get one of your two cores in that mode."
However the laptop freezes otherwise when switched to battery power. Even when using AC, it freezes after a few hours of work. Any ideas what I need to do to make it work on battery, not freeze, and see both cores?
Thank you!
