Are you booting with the new intel u-code? You mean installing the intel-ucode package and enabling it in the bootloader as per instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/microcode ?
No, I haven't gotten around to it yet as I'm, since August 2012, a user of the grub-legacy (0.97) package on this laptop. I know grub-legacy doesn't support the loading of the microcode. I'll switch to using Syslinux instead when I find a proper memstick.
Are you fairly sure this is a Intel microcode issue?
To Rasmus,
I'm not completely certain; but it would make sense. I'd test it out.

Thank you for your help thus far. I'll examine this further tomorrow, g'night. -- Rasmus Liland, jrl@jrl.dyndns.dk, jens.rasmus.liland@nmbu.no
