I have a different board that I can ship out along with a patch for MSI only. Also just found out that this chipset is the follow on to the zx1. I've had MSI work on zx1 based systems and PCI-X controllers. This is the first time trying it with PCI-E and the new chipset. The trace we captured looks normal though all the init stuff. The host and controller talk to each other until we try to send the interrupt message data. It goes to address 0 (so it says) and never returns. mikem > > Mark > > On Mon, Jan 30, 2006 at 09:38:52AM -0800, Greg KH wrote: > > On Mon, Jan 30, 2006 at 10:33:50AM -0600, Miller, Mike (OS > Dev) wrote: > > > Greg KH, > > > We have the same results on 2.6.15, the MSI-X table is > all zeroes. > > > See below.
