Re: 2.5.xx ACPI/Sb16 IRQ conflict

I can confirm this with 2.5.61 and my SB16AWE card. There seems to be a bug
when PCI interrupts are set by ACPI on a IBM 300PL 6892-N2U.

Also, the IBM BIOS's PnP for OS is enabled.

When the PnP BIOS is disabled and pci=noacpi is NOT used. There are no
conflicts. When PnP BIOS is enabled and we don't set pci=noacpi we get
conflicts with IRQs.

We might need a workaround or is this a bug in IBM's ACPI implimentation?
