2.6.12-rc5-git9 on both x86 and x86_64. On the x86 I have as follows:-
177: 178576 IO-APIC-level ohci_hcd:usb3, eth0
185: 64 IO-APIC-level eth1
193: 5 IO-APIC-level ehci_hcd:usb1, ohci1394
201: 961 IO-APIC-level ohci_hcd:usb2, NVidia nForce2
The interrupts are increasing, but they come from eth0 only, usb3 and
eth0 share the same interrupt.

On the x86_64, all joystick controls and buttons are functional
193: 107220 IO-APIC-level ehci_hcd:usb1, uhci_hcd:usb2,
uhci_hcd:usb3, uhci_hcd:usb4
201: 20940 IO-APIC-level eth0

Possible problem with interrupt routing on the x86 box?. I shall try
"pci=routeirq" next boot.
Regards
Sid.
