Thanks for the reply. This started happening in 2.6.21 suddenly, which is why I tried upgrading to 2.6.22. It seemed to have started happening when my bluetooth light mysteriously went on one day. I went into bios and disabled some IO devices earlier today; "Wireless USB", my firewire port, and the bluetooth adapter. The bluetooth light went off, and this has not happened since. I think it's safe to say it's not going to happen again, since I was getting the IRQ messages every few minutes and it's not happening at all now. I don't have any hardware to test of those IO ports were working or not anyway...
Some of the hardware in this laptop behaves strangely, like using the madwifi drivers with the Atheros wireless will throw the device into a state where it will not be recognized by ndiswrapper or anything until I power down and pull the battery or boot Vista and then boot linux. That's a known issue with the madwifi drivers and my chipset, I'm wondering if something similar happened with the bluetooth chipset/drivers. If anyone needs more info or wants me to try to reproduce the problem let me know, but it's working for the moment again. It looks like others have had the same issue. http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Debian_Lenny_on_a_ThinkPad_T61#Problems Thanks, Dylan On 7/12/07, Alan Stern <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Thu, 12 Jul 2007, Dylan Taft wrote: > > > Hi all.
