noapic doesn't quite work as advertised

2001-05-22 Thread Andy Arvai
Hi, I've got a tyan s2520 motherboard (dual PIII + i840) which is having a problem with APIC errors. I tried running with noapic, but there were still errors, although fewer. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? I'm running 2.4.4 and software raid5, which generates a lot of interrupts.

APIC errors on 2.4.4

Hi, I'm having IO-APIC errors with 2.4.4. I spent some time searching the web to understand more about this problem and I'm still not sure if it is a hardware problem on the motherboard or a problem with the kernel. I will try the noapic boot option, but are there any patches that might fix

Hi, I have a Tyan S2520 motherboard and I am getting IO-APIC errors. I looked in the documentation in IO-APIC.txt and there was the following one-liner: echo -n pirq=; echo `scanpci | grep T_L | cut -c56-` | sed 's/ /,/g' Unfortunately, this doesn't work for me. There is no "T_L" in
