Oh, one more thing: the pci_map_rom() bug might have mapped some ROM image
in your system at a bogus address, and that might cause problems.

Now, not many drivers use pci_map_rom(), and for video ROMs this bug
should be hidden by the fact that video ROMs end up using the shadow
system rom on x86, but it's possible that you had something that used the
sysfs rom code to enable a ROM and that causes problems.

If so, the bug should be fixed in the 2.6.13.1 -stable release and/or in
the current -git snapshots, so it would be very nice if you could test one
of those..
