This is what "cat /proc/interrupts" and "dmesg" says when I boot the kernel 
with no options: (append="")
http://www.kpage.de/interruptsacpi.txt
http://www.kpage.de/dmesgacpi.txt

Sorry, I can't tell you what it say's, because my machine does not boot with 
this option's. At the moment the machine is hanging after rebooting with this 
options and I've no more remote access to it. Because I'm at work now, I can 
go on in 7 hours...
I've tried some of this options yesterday with almost the same result (system 
is hanging) - I don't get error messages like a segfault on screen - the 
machine is just hanging...

Greetings
Frank
