Hello,

Unfortunately, I have bad news. I took vanilla 2.6.29 and modified it so
that its spurious interrupt threshold is 99. After an uptime of 4 days
and 4.5 hours with this kernel, at 3:30am, when the computer was mostly
idle, I got the "nobody cared" message below:

=== 8< ===
irq 18: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)

My laptop has four USB ports, two on its right side and two on its back.
I have a USB keyboard attached to one of the ports on the back and a
USB mouse attached to one of the ports on the right side. This "nobody
cared" message only affected the rear ports. If I connect my USB keyboard
to a port on the right side, then it works properly. I don't know if this
problem is specific to the ports on the real panel or is because of my USB
keyboard.

If needed, I can reboot and have my USB keyboard (and mouse) attached to
one of the ports on the right side and see whether I get a "nobody cared"
message or not.

What I don't understand is how I managed to get with 2.6.28.7-spurious
a 15 day uptime without any "nobody cared" messages.

Should I go back to testing 2.6.24.7 or 2.6.28.7 ? I would appreciate
any suggestion to debug this problem.

I will not reboot until I get a reply from you, in case the current
state of the computer can provide some information.

Thank you,

M. Vefa Bicakci
