[Dave <xwebsubs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Sorry if my posting is not appropriate... I'm very new to Linux, but inquisitive.
I have just installed an Ubuntu 14.04 based desktop, Linux Lite 2.2 kernel 3.13.?
H/W is Intel CPU i7-4790S = 4 Core +HT and I have VT enabled so I can run Virtualbox.

I have found the following in dmesg log file:

[    0.022633] Your BIOS is broken and requested that x2apic be disabled.
[    0.022633] This will slightly decrease performance.
[    0.022633] Use 'intremap=no_x2apic_optout' to override BIOS request.
[    0.022745] Enabled IRQ remapping in xapic mode
[    0.022746] x2apic not enabled, IRQ remapping is in xapic mode

Is this also related to the issue in this thread.?
If it it is,
I can provide more information if you tell me what I need to do.?

David

Bug description:
  It was brought to my attention the following situation:

  """
  We massively upgraded our Ubuntu 12.04 servers (most of them are HP
  DL360p Gen8 or DL380 Gen8) to 3.2.0-67 kernel And in the last 2-3
  days we already had to reboot 5 of them because they completely hang

  Some of them had the following messages under syslog :
  kernel: [384707.675479] general protection fault: 0000 [#5666] SMP

  others had :
  kernel: [950725.612724] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request

  All of them have this also :
  your BIOS is broken and requested that x2apic be disabled
