[Bug 261937] Re: Ubuntu server freeze when running more than one cpu in VMware ESX 3

[James Troup]

We've also run into this with VMWare ESX 3.5i and both the 8.04 and
8.04.1 (installer) kernels.  Adding 'clocksource=acpi_pm' as mentioned
in the forums thread, fixed it for us.  See also:

Without the workaround we were seeing all sorts of bizarre and often
fatal problems.  Tim thinks the kernels in -proposed may also fix this
but I wasn't able to test this yet.
