Hi Konrad,

this is actually different in the current (for 12.04) kernel configurations:

CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU=y
# CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU_DEFAULT_ON is not set

The reason it is not on by default is that some machines showed issues

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/907377

Btw, this is talking about a 3.3.0-rc7 kernel, which is either taken from the
mainline builds or even self-compiled. 11.10 came with 3.0 and even 12.04 is 3.2
only.
