Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: Distribution: Hardware Environment: MSI MegaBook S270 (amd64) Software Environment: Kernel >= 2.6.13 Problem Description: since kernel 2.16.13 (also 2.6.14-rc5) i'm unable to use usb on my notebook, due the irq nobidy card failure. booting with irqpoll is working, but than my notebook is very unstable. all other boot options (noapic,pci=routeirq,noacpi) are not working. also there is an other problem with die ATI IXP chipset, that the clock ticks double speed. but booting with option no_timer_check helps out. Steps to reproduce:
Created attachment 6368 [details] cat /proc/interrupts
Created attachment 6369 [details] lcpci -v
Created attachment 6370 [details] dmesg
Created attachment 6383 [details] debug patch >ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:04.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 177 >ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:04.1[B] -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 185 I suspect enabling card bus bridge is too early. Could you please try the debug patch and post the dmesg with appling the patch?
Created attachment 6384 [details] dmesg with patch 6383 i have forgotton to say. if i plug-in my usb mouse or enable my built-in bluetooth dongle after boot, the irq nobody cared problem occurs not during boot, but at the time plugging the device in.
if i disable ehci_hcd in kernel, i can boot without problems...
pci=noacpi doesn't work for you. BTW, does acpi=off work?
Created attachment 6392 [details] dmesg acpi=off dmesg with acpi=off -> not working
Created attachment 6393 [details] dmesg pci=noacpi dmesg pci=noacpi -> not working
exactly same bug here on ACER Travelmate 529TXV
Does it work with recent kernel versions?
sorry, for my late response, it's fixed since 2.6.15 or 2.6.14
