It > never freezes. My kernel would freeze if I enabled Local APIC on Uniprocessor. Since ACPI does the IRQ routing this is probably what is confusing things. It would be useful if the one could override the other if it's being used. I make mention of this on my website and my kernel patch's default configuration has these options disabled. Other people have mentioned a problem with losing interrupts on some models of Compaq - I haven't suffered from this and there is a patch for this which someone has made (which since I don't use it hasn't stuck in my memory I'm afraid). I do get the warning about the unknown device, but I ignored it as I knew I didn't have the device. I will remove it from my DSDT now I know what's causing it ;) Faye -- Faye Pearson, Software Development Manager, ClaraNET Ltd.
