Hi ,

I've posted this message on lkml, but it went practically unnoticed.
Well, realising this list is a more appropriate place  - I'm (re)posting it
here, with some additional info.
The problem is:
with ACPI patches mentioned in Subject and ACPI enabled in kernel, NIC in my
laptop (3c556 Laptop Hurricane, according to driver output) fails to detect
proper card configuration, including, but not limited to, media it is working
with, availability of MII transceiver(s), and other important parameters.
Kernels tested:
2.4.20, 2.4.21-rc7, 2.4.21, 2.4.21-ac, 2.5.70, 2.5.72
What I've tried to fix this (apparently wrong) behaviour:
pci=noacpi and  pci=biosint kernel cmdline arguments,  enabling/disabling
different PCI access modes (BIOS/Direct/Any).

Disabling ACPI with acpi=off cures this problem completely.
Attached are dmesg excerpts from ACPI-enabled and -disabled boots with results of
insmod 3c59x debug=6

Full respective dmesgs, .config and lspci -vvv outputs are available at
http://www.relex.ru/~yarick/acpi/

I was very interested by
diff lspci.acpi lspci.acpi=off
output, and I want to provide it inlined, in case somebody could get or give
me a quick clue:

I could and gladly will provide additional information.
Or, at least, tell me where to start digging ?

Salut Yaroslav,
I am curios what the /proc/interrupts diff looks like...
