What does this mean, should I do anything about it?  Is tiling nice to have?

It sounds like GEM broke something - though maybe it just added a more verbose error report.

I expect noapic explains the MSI failure. I can boot without noapic if necessary for testing, but I can't run with it because I get nasty hangs & reboots. I don't see why that merits an *ERROR*... anyway, what I'm interested in is the "Disabling tiling".

Actually... MSI does seem to be working for my ethernet.

$ grep eth /proc/interrupts
44:       2446   PCI-MSI-edge      eth1

DRM wasn't using MSI in 2.6.27 though. So I'm still doubtful that the MSI issue is really an "*ERROR*".

Thanks
Alan
