        After tuning the ACPI/whatever on the BIOS, the newer kernels are
    working fine and dandy. With just one exception, but I'm sure it's
    simple.

        kernel-2.6.8-1.521 seems to be perfect. In fact, just like the
    previous problem, it's probably a matter of tuning the scheduler, since
    I've not touched it.

        NO, OpenGL is working just fine in hardware.

        During gameplay, I see a *THREE SECOND* delay, repeated many times
    over a short game, making it very unplayable. Nothing else is running
    during this time; not playing mp3s, serving any files (the kids are
    asleep) and it happens at any time of the day.

        But since the latest fix was to the interrupt-system, maybe I need
    to set some priorities? The game offers no error messages...it's just
    losing timeslices here and there. There's nothing awry in
    /var/log/messages.

        Is this something new that people need to set for various
    performance levels under different loads?
