------- Comment #51 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-03-17 02:29 ------- Blacklisting BIOSes older than 2004 to use pnpbios as default instead of pnpacpi? Not because of this one. If more machines pop up where this makes sense. I expect Bjorn knows more broken PNP machines and whether this could help. He should have a final word on this. For the parport_pc device/driver..., I expect the driver itself is rather broken (some reported dma channel 7 was used, there exist loading un- and reloading driver workarounds, the author answered: don't touch it it's ugly, old and unmaintained, etc.). IMO the blacklisting should better not be done because of this one. You might want to reopen and close it as won't fix, workaround available (boot or driver params) or similar... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
