On loading the module, I get:
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device :0f:00.1 disabled

Hi Emil,
Yes, this is enabled in this kernel, so that's a mystery.
cat /boot/config-2.6.25.3-18.fc9.x86_64 |grep CONFIG_PCI_MSI
CONFIG_PCI_MSI=y
R
Check your kernel configuration - CONFIG_PCI_MSI should be enabled.
The driver defaults to MSI.
Thanks,
Emil
