Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.17
This is not the same as bug #41095.
On my Macbook I get this problem on startup about 50% of the time.

Booting with acpi=debug gets me no extra information.
Saïvann: Additionnal debug files can be found in duplicate bug #91279
Saïvann: Also affect Dell Dimension C521. This problem can sometime be fixed by disabling HyperThreading option in BIOS.
