Hello,

I have some testing to report. Using debian 4.0 and kernel 2.6.20.6 The computer is a Dell inspiron 1501 laptop. I get errors and the hard disc is not detected.

Using pci=nomsi causes the hard disc to be detected and it works correctly.

The same errors occurred with the 2.6.18 kernel.  Again pci=nomsi fixes it.

Yep, broken interrupt delivery will definitely look like that. MSI is definitely a problem here, at least on SB600.


I can also report that the pata_atiixp driver which was new between 2.6.18 and 2.6.20.6 works correctly for my CD drive.

That driver does not use MSI, so no worries there.
