Hey guys,

First off, I use gentoo, so I realize I'm a little out of place here.

However, I'm experiencing the exact same problems with my dv9317cl.

Booted normally on 2.6.22, my system functions okay. However, running programs that produce a lot of text output (cat /proc/interrupts, and especially dmesg) freeze the system in text mode. Booting with noapic causes one of the cores to get tied up processing spurious interrupts from the USB controller (unloading ehci-hcd causes this to stop at the expense of USB 2.0 support) and I experience intermittent freezes in Xorg while using OpenGL apps (according to nvidia this is caused by the video card not receiving interrupts).

I'd be willing to provide any logs/info requested. I'd even be willing to install ubuntu to troubleshoot this.
