Anyway, since I have checked the via support for ide (from kernel configuration CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX=y) it means that I have support for via82C* ide compiled in, the main question still remains - why is the CD audio ripping causing 'lost interrupt' on via ide, while everything else is working and audio cd ripping is working with pci ide card (same computer, same cd drive). any pointers where to look? I'd appreciate something just a bit more specific than just pointing me to ide driver... TIA erik
