Hi Andrew, list;

In current 2.4.20-pre7-patch blacklist.c:

	{"ASUS\0\0", "P2B-S   ", 0, ACPI_DSDT, all_versions, "Bogus PCI routing", 1},
	{"COMPAQ", "DSDT", 0, ACPI_DSDT, all_versions, "Bogus PCI routing", 1},

If PCI routing doesn't work, I'd suggest _not_ to fail as "non-recoverable
error". There are some other ACPI features that work well even without PCI
routing. So I'd suggest to set "use_acpi_pci" to zero in 
arch/i386/kernel/pci-pc.c instead. 

	Dominik
