Hello Linus,

is this BAD, then:

2.4.21-pre4-aa3

When I move my mouse over the OpenGL context window the OpenGL app runs 
faster. But not as fast as before (last year "gears" had ~2800 fps, now ~800 
fps).

Any change (kernel parameter) to set both aic7xxx (U160 and 2940UW) 
controllers, the two NICs and the r200 on different IRQs?

Thanks,
        Dieter
