Since all the other interrupts work (and MSI worked for other controllers), I don't think it's interrupt-routing related. Especially as MSI shouldn't even care about things like that. And since it all works when "irqpoll" is used, that implies that the *only* thing that is broken is literally irq delivery. Is there possibly some jmicron-specific "enable interrupts" bit? > PS : I'd like to try 2.6.21-rc3, but it seems that this is breaking my > config : disk naming is no more the same, and I end up with a panic > Warning: unable to open an initial console > though i've been compiling with the same .config I was using for 2.6.21-rc2 Gaah. Can you get a log through serial console or netconsole to see what changed?
