Hm. I don't know much about the PCI code, so maybe what follows won't make any sense and may not be related: The card is PCI64, and there's an "unknown" device in the dmesg that is an "Intel 82806AA I/O APIC Device" according to its device ID.

I don't think either has a setting that sounds similar, but I'll double-check tomorrow. >>I'm trying to find the original Dell-branded firmware somewhere, but so >>far, no luck. > > *groan* I might have an image somewhere around... hang on... > check my directory on hub- there's 1.0.6 there... That'd be great. I also emailed Dell and LSI. Lars -- Lars Eggert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> USC Information Sciences Institute
