The part that's confusing to me though, is why does even just using the keyboard to go up/down in the Ubuntu installer have serious, visible lag on my box?
But the Gentoo minimal install-CD has no such lag at all, even if it's running the same kernel as the Ubuntu install CD?
That, to me, points that the Ubuntu CD has some odd modification to the kernel it packages that's causing this. And the fact we see the same thing at work on Dell PowerEdge servers running ESX keeps me wondering what the heck is up.
