Apparently exactly because the docking bridge is this one: 00:04.0 PCI bridge: Texas Instruments PCI2032 PCI Docking Bridge (prog-if 01 [Subtractive decode]) and that bridge itself is already transparent, so the fact that we couldn't allocate any explicit windows for it really seems like it shouldn't matter. > I know it can be solved without patches because of that one fluke > attempt where it worked - I just had no way of knowing which options actually > contributed to that success while it lasted.

So those are the docking bridge resources, but if I understood correctly, what you have issues with is that you want a graphics card in the dock to work - and I can't even see it in the lspci output. I see this one: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) but that is the built-in laptop graphics. You say that you have another graphics card that used to be at 02:00.0, but it's not showing up at ALL, so this is more than some random resource allocation issue - this is a device not even even being enumerated. That's very different - it implies that some bridge isn't turned on at all. Can you do the dmesg and lspci for the kernel where this works?
