The driver has no special handling for IP27 and is capable of reading the NICs on some machines at least. That would be a rather suprising ability if there was no NIC associated with that IOC3 ;-) (A while ago I recall a few second hand Origins were being sold on eBay with NICs removed ...) > > [4294678.020000] ioc3_probe : request_irq fails for IRQ 0x4 > > This is weird.

All information that I have says only INTA is being used for IP27. It will probably take a bit of testing. I haven't yet had any complaints about keyboard and mouse being non- functional on IP27 - even though my Origin has 4 keyboard and 4 mouse ports ;-) Ralf
