Eric Biedermeier suggested I ask here about a BIOS setting on the Tyan
K7 Thunder motherboard, "Use PCI Interrupt Entries In MP Table".
I'm doing an article about building the ultimate Linux box for Linux
Journal. This setting turns out to be necessary to eliminate some
IRQ-sharing conflicts, and I'd like to explain it in the article.

Under democracy one party always devotes its chief energies
to trying to prove that the other party is unfit to rule--and
both commonly succeed, and are right... The United States
has never developed an aristocracy really disinterested or an
intelligentsia really intelligent. Its history is simply a record
of vacillations between two gangs of frauds.
