SubjectRE: DMA not supported with Intel ICH4 I/O controller?
Date
Roland,

Thanks for your response!

That's correct, we are a PCI bus master device.

With respect to the IRQ routing: If the routing was messed up, wouldn't
this mean that no IRQs would get through on that device? We are getting
some . . .

. . . thanks for the feedback.

Regards,
Kathy
