Does the MCA log say anything useful? I used your .config and saw an MCA in i8042_flush() (IIP in __ia64_inb, BR0 in i8042_flush). Can you try turning off CONFIG_SERIO_I8042? This was fixed a while back, but maybe it got broken again. And the i8042 probe happens much later than your log indicates, so maybe you're seeing a different problem. P.S. What is your firmware "acpiconfig" mode? My eiger is in "default" mode, in which accesses to non-existent I/O ports cause MCAs. But we don't officially support that yet because of issues like this. The supported modes allow accesses to non-existent ports by setting either "single-pci-domain" or "enable legacyprobe". - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ia64" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
