My laptop has IRQ9 configured as ACPI SCI. When IRQ9 is shared between ACPI
and e100 an IRQ9 storm occurs when e100 is enabled, as can be seen in the
dmesg output below. The kernel then disables IRQ9, thus preventing e100 from
working properly. The problem does not occur, if I override the default PCI
steering in the BIOS, e.g. by routing LNKA to IRQ11.
Nonetheless it would be good if someone could figure out why sharing IRQ9
is problematic.
Thanks,

Is this new with 2.6.10-rc1, or has it always been broken in an
ACPI-enabled kernel with acpi sharing an irq with e100?
I suspect this may be a bug in the e100 -- it may have enabled
interrupts before it has registered a handler.
Assuming it is a receive interrupt, you may be able to verify this by
plugging in the network cable after the system has probed e100 and see
if it works normally after that.
Also, you might try out the eepro100 driver to see if it behaves any
differently.
thanks,

I saw similar behaviour in 2.6.8.1 on a non-ACPI enabled kernel with
a dual-port e100. The nic simply would not work, spewing this error in
syslog:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out
If I booted with an ACPI enabled kernel, the box worked again. IRQ
sharing was involved, though can't recall which IRQ eth1 tried to use.
This was on a brand new Dell Optiplex.
