Do I need to compile it? Thanks. Gustav Hi (somewhat late, but i had some work to do; just cc it for once too to your private emailaddress to be sure you see it) under debian_etch i found this in: > */lib/modules/2.6.17-2-k7/build/drivers/pci/Kconfig* # # PCI configuration # config PCI_MSI bool "Message Signaled Interrupts (MSI and MSI-X)" depends on PCI depends on (X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_IO_APIC) || IA64 help This allows device drivers to enable MSI (Message Signaled Interrupts). Message Signaled Interrupts enable a device to generate an interrupt using an inbound Memory Write on its PCI bus instead of asserting a device IRQ pin. Use of PCI MSI interrupts can be disabled at kernel boot time by using the 'pci=nomsi' option. This disables MSI for the entire system. If you don't know what to do here, say N. config PCI_DEBUG bool "PCI Debugging" depends on PCI && DEBUG_KERNEL help Say Y here if you want the PCI core to produce a bunch of debug messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a problem with PCI support and want to see more of what is going on. When in doubt, say N. do first something like grep -r /boot/&& just to see if MSI is compiled into your kernel. this should work. please let us/me know if it does indeed. good luck! kind regards, steef ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
