There's a bit somewhere in the southbridge (sorry would need to look it up in the datasheet and you can do that as well yourself ;-) If you set that bit before the PCI device scan in the kernel (or afterwards and force a rescan) the PCI-ID magically appears. Doing it before it's a bit of a chicken and egg problem, I used the early PCI code in x86-64 (include/asm-x86_64/pci-direct.h) for this. Ok and now you have to comment out this nasty check in the driver of course. I had a patch for this, but I can't find it right noiw. -Andi ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
