BZ#14395? Yes, I got. As it is a RHEL 5.4 BZ, it would be better to open it at
bugzilla.redhat.com.

I'm this week in Japan for the Kernel Summit and Japan Linux Symposium. I'm
currently without access to my i5400 machine. 

I'll take a look on it next week, after my return. 

>From a quick look I did at the BZ, in advance, it didn't occurred to me any
ideas why having a non-MC PCI controller at the machine would
generate any troubles at i5400 driver. I'll probably need more information from the
one that reported it like a sosreport.

Cheers,
Mauro.
