I know that because there has been no code freeze yet that weird things will happen occasionally, but on and off from about the start of 2.1 I have been getting messages like this on boot:
- parport0: PC-style at 0x3bc, irq 7 [SPP,PS2] This is a forced configuration on a SPP/EPP/ECP/ECP+EPP (doesn't matter which mode) port, otherwise it won't find the irq, and it refuses to work. - PIIX: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later For both IDE devices. - PIIX: neither IDE port enabled (BIOS) And both are enabled in BIOS, otherwise I wouldn't be able to boot.
These are from 2.1.89 (& 90-pre[123])
And the kernel won't auto-detect my NE2000 (clone) while it is set for irq 3, but auto-detects while on irq 12, there is no serial port on irq 3.
The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has it's limits. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Marcus Berglund, VK3TST.
