    Hello!

    This is a part from /var/log/dmesg (link to full file

    Disabling IRQ #16

    I've recently switched from an "ASUS P4T533-C"
    motherboard to an "ABIT IS7-E2", and got the errors
    mentioned above after boot. Only the motherboard and
    the ram was changed (rambus -> INFINEON 400Mhz DDR).

    I've tried everything that I could do, bot non of them
    helped:

    I've set the Sata to "enhanced mode" in BIOS Settings,
    which solved the problem for a guy with a similar ABIT
    motherboard, it didn't worked for me; Actually I've
    tried all Sata settings...

    I've tried it with 2.6.7, 2.6.9, even 2.6.10-rc2
    kernels, same error everywhere.

    Slax LiveCD got the same error, my installed system
    got the same error(SourceMage linux). Interestingly
    UHU-Linux hasn't got any errors(maybe because the 2.4
    kernel it uses).

    So I've figured that the IRQ is shared between the two
    onboard 1.1 USB hubs and the vga card. My vga is an
    NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti4200 btw.

    If I disable the onboard usb in the BIOS, I get no
    errors. I also don't get any errors when I pass the
    "noirqdebug" parameter to the kernel. (Maybe the
    system is a bit slower I think.)

    If I get the errors I can't start X with the nvidia
    driver, and my usb mouse stops working. However if I
    use vesa for video I can start X, and it runs just
    fine. USB mouse works too, if I plug it elsewhere(not
    in the motherboard's onboard usb hubs)

    I have support of ACPI support in kernel, tried to
    boot with "noacpi" parameter, but nothing changed.
    Disabling ACPI support in kernel give the same
    results.

    Oh, and when I tried to install windows XP for my sis
    on the same computer it hangs after it copied the
    files to hdd, and rebooted the system. It stays there
    with the blue background of the installer and a
    cursor. Mouse moves, but nothing happens. I've just
    wrote this here to give all info I can. :)

    So I only want to know that why can it work flawlessly
    with noirqdebug on, and why it can't without.

    I've put the board in the computer according to its'
    manual, and it is ok I think. Though if I messed up
    something, then I REALLY don't want to waste your
    time, but if someone would be so kind to explain me in
    cc than I would be really thankful :) I don't want to
    waste your time or the list's bandwith.
