@Chem. Imbalance, That is indeed a shame to move from a supposedly stable Ubuntu to an alpha Fedora distro! But this would mean this is no direct kernel issue then... this really has to be figured out ASAP!!!
@VangelistX, I take it from the header of this page that you are in charge. Given the increasing quantity of users impacted and the definite critical importance of this bug (computers stall and need to be rebooted sometimes multiple times per day), can we consider moving it from UNDECIDED to CRITICAL? Thank you.
Back to my previous attempts, I also confirm the "noapic nolapic acpi=off" flags did not solve the problem but merely postponed it to 24h later...
However, as recalled earlier, in my case the system stalls mostly after 15 to 20min of fullscreen video playback. Today I watched quite a lot of movies in small windowed screens, and everything went fine! I would say the main observable difference between windowed and fullscreen is an intensified CPU usage of Xorg. Others have the problem when intensely downloading... Is it possible Xorg or any other software can unbalance the HPET clock when harvesting the CPU resources?
