Please forget my previous mail. No boolean defaults to TRUE:

XF86Config(5x):
   Boolean options may optionally have a value specified.  When no
   value is specified, the option's value is TRUE.

Maybe it's card dependent. I use the mga-driver with xfree 4.1 and
mga(4) says: 
   
   Option "PciRetry" "boolean"
  Enable or disable PCI retries.  Default: off.

So wouldn't 

Option "PciRetry"

be the default of "off" anyways, and thus redundant? 
Just wondering. I have it commented out and so it's "off". I'm just not
sure if this is ok...

Just a plain

Option  "PciRetry"

without any "on" or "Off".

But another question... That option completely screws my screen and I'm unable to kill 
X. Only the sysrq keys will work..

Maybe the ICE1712 drivers need an update to support also the ICE1724 chipset (and the 
latest Egosys and Audiotrak cards).

There are a couple of patches that are part of the Juissi
Lako's patchset that I have used to fix that.  

I wrote on May 30 (linux-audio-user):

I'm including the part of the patch that I added to my kernel
as an attachment.

Just for reference, here are the post of the complete patch to
linux-kernel list (and related thread), and a second post with a fixed
version. You may remember those...

I have only tried the mga_dma.c part of the patch I posted before.

Should this be:
Option  "PciRetry" "on"
or
Option  "PciRetry" "off"
?
