The IRQ routing was struggling over a lousy pci-host-bridge and an idiotic (and ugly badly documented) irq routing on the epox board.
This one runns only with "noapic pirq=5,10,11,15" and fires up to much irqs onto the same one, leaving other possible resoures unused. Just have a look on irq 10, there are three sources of irq working. This fails sometimes. No wonder why. ;-<< Also was it impossible to get suitable usb-bus-bandwith-performance for the scanner (HP 6350) to get it scanning withouts stopping and re-starting (buffer transmission to sane/xsane).
