Re: Fw: ACPI bug causes cd-rom lock-ups (2.6.10-rc2)

This is a common BIOS bug.  It advertises that LNK1 is presently set
to IRQ9, but tells us that IRQ9 is actually illegal for that link;
so Linus has to choose a legal one. (no, we can't just leave it there,
as that breaks other systems).  But apparently we choose poorly.

IDE probes out and grabs its hard-coded IRQ15.

Here we assign LNK1 to IRQ15 for the benefit of USB,
which, of course, kills your IDE on IRQ 15.  This
is a Linux bug -- but one I thought we fixed some time back.

I'm surprised that you're just seeing this now in 2.6.10.
Did 2.6.9 work correctly?  If so, can you send me the
2.6.9 dmesg?

Any difference with CONFIG_PNP=n?

thanks,
