It seems like we ought to report this to somebody, but I don't have any idea who that would be. Clearly, this works fine on a number of motherboards in 8.04. I don't have 10.04 running on anything here, so I can't test it. Anybody who has an EPP capable motherboard should be able to test it with 10.04 just by setting it in the BIOS for EPP and then checking /proc/ioports for the extra address field.
So, I don't know for SURE that this only applies to certain Intel Atom motherboards, but I'm guessing we would have heard about it by now if it was a broader problem. Anyway, I got Don Stanley through creating a script that would run pcisetup before EMC, and setting the pcisetup executable so it had privileges to run. So, that ONE user is in good shape for now.
