I am able to confirm that the problem occurs with vanilla 2.5.13 after
I apply the above patch.


Thanks.

Please then try the latest ACPI patch here:
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/release/2.6.13/acpi-20050902-2.6.13.diff.gz
It should apply to vanilla 2.6.13 with a reject in ia64/Kconfig
that you can ignore.

If this works, then we munged git-acpi.patch in 2.6.13-mm1 somehow.

There were no problems with this patch applied. So it looks like the munge theory is correct.


If this fails, then please confirm it still fails with pnpacpi=off

if it still fails, then please open a bugzilla here:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=ACPI
component=config-interrupts

build the failing kernel with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y
boot it with "acpi=noirq" and attach the output from
dmesg -s64000
lspci -vv
cat /proc/interrupts
acpidump, available in the latest pmtools here:
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/

also include the dmesg -s64000 from the successful
acpi-enabled 2.6.13 boot, along with its /proc/interrupts.

If you have a serial console and can then capture the
failing console log with "debug", that would be ideal.

Where we got from there will depend what we see...

thanks,
-Len
