I used to get these a long time ago, but they vanished It can't be that, because splhigh() doesn't mask "fast" interrupts. BTW, there is a problem with the PCI interrupt demultiplexor not supporting "fast" interrupts. I tried running the cy driver with "slow" interrupts (a one line change to delate the line that sets RI_FAST). The (12 byte) fifo was overrun by a factor of about 4 for every syscons vt switch (because busy waiting is used to set the LEDs and the LEDs are set at spltty()). Bruce
