This remembers me of a pretty strange issue I'm having with ACPI on my NEC/Packard Bell Chrom@ laptop: if I plug my 3Com CardBus NIC in the second PCMCIA slot, the kernel hangs during boot just at the time the NIC generates an interrupt (for example, by sending a ping or some traffic). However, if I plug the NIC into the first slot, it works perfectly. Curious, isn't it? I think it's related to ACPI IRQ routing: the NIC uses IRQ10 when plugged into the first slot, but it uses IRQ5 when plugged into the second one (which causes the mentioned hang). IRQ5 is being shared with my YMFPCI sound card. Don't know if this is related to the hangs, but I thought it was worth saying. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
