I am going to ask a dumb question here, I've done a bit of research but can't seem to find a good explanation as to what the consequences are so I figured I'd ask here just to get the record straight for myself as well as anyone else with this issue trying to get the same information. So far I've seen a few different options that bypass the problem;

acpi=off (disables power management completely and I personally wouldn't suggest)

acpi=noirq
nolapic

Which is best to use? All documentation I've found seems to state these 2 things are not the same. At current, I am using the apci=noirq, but I am not sure what that actually does, and if perhaps nolapic would be better. Just figured I'd get the best solution until this problem can be properly fixed as opposed to "triaged".
