Re:APIC problems?

Yeah, at least I have tried nopentium, noapic, no dma/udma, everything turned off in BIOS, et al. It doesn't get any better, at least not noticeable.

I don't have the time to dig deep into the kernel to add the patch from 2.4.18 to 2.4.19 'one-by-one' to see if there is a single thing that make it work.

A really, really nice thing would have been if Mandrake had shipped more kernels to choose from, not only one 2.4 and two 2.2's. In the future, couldn't they provide also the most stable one from the previous distribution? That could possibly save a few tears further down the distribution line...
