There's a fix in 2.6.12-rc2-mm3. Actually, I doubt that it will help you, though -- the 2.6.11 breakage is such that some machines that need the fixup don't get it (and don't print the "VIA IRQ fixup message"). - 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/
