Bug Description
I have run Ubuntu 8.10 on my Packard Bell EasyNote MH-35 laptop without problems. After upgrading to Ubuntu version 9.04, lap-top is slow and uses only one core. The processor is Intel Core Duo T8100. I have to use noapic nolapic boot options to get Ubuntu booting (also in the 8.10 version). I have tried to disable the USB mouse and keyboard support in BIOS (this was suggested as a solution on another lap-top) but in this case the system refuses to boot.
Below some more info.

I've marked it as confirmed based on multiple Intel C2D owners reporting similar output (kernel configured for Transmeta CPU's) in this ubuntuforums thread. http:// ubuntuforums. org/showthread. php?t=1142333
