I'm happy I have some decent interrupt controller inside (next to two 82c59s
:-(

CPU0
1: 136 82c59 keyboard
2: 0 82c59 cascade
3: 19 82c59 serial
4: 144 82c59 serial
5: 1 82c59 Crystal audio controller
6: 4 82c59 floppy
16: 0 OpenPIC OpenPIC cascade
22: 341691 OpenPIC MESH
26: 0 OpenPIC ADB
29: 2362 OpenPIC DC21041 (eth0)
BAD: 0 spurious or short

Greetings,
