ATI IXP PCI interrupt quirks aren't known.  I went looking
for documentation on the ATI chipsets some time ago but
couldn't find any.

The CardBus slot can not be used as interrupt routing is busted
in ways not apparent without documentation.

Depends if you can find documentation on the ATI chipset the
laptop is based on...
