Hi!
I'm also using P2B-DS and can confirm that starting with kernel 2.6.32 SMP stopped working (and don't work still - tested with current git v2.6.33-rc5-238-g158c168) The issue seems to have something to do with the fact that ACPI is blacklisted on P2B-DS. I used to workaround this bug on newer kernels (>=2.6.32) by passing "acpi=force" in kernel arguments. Finally, yesterday I found some time to write simple automated bisection script and leaved it to run on machine overnight. Here's result:

Allow consumers of the acpi_table_parse()/acpi_table_parse_entries() API to gracefully handle the acpi_disabled=1 case via return value rather than checking the global flag themselves.

I re-checked this result and yes - reverting this commit on both 2.6.32 and current git (v2.6.33-rc5-238-g158c168) makes problem go away.
