Subject:   Need help isolating prob w/rtc0 intr's stopping

I'm hoping that someone out there can give me some suggestions on what I
can do to track down a problem I'm having on my dual Xeon system that's
running 3.1-stable.  When I first boot the machine rtc0 interrupts just
fine, however, as soon as I put a load on it (like starting X) my rtc0
interrupts stop.  This causes all of the system monitors (like top,
vmstat, iostat, etc.) to display 0% cpu usage and idle times.

My system is consists of the following:

ASUS XG-DLS motherboard
2 Xeon 400MHz/512KB cache processors
512MB of ECC SDRAM

Note that if I boot a UP kernel the problem does not occur.

I have exchanged email with Tor Egge who suggested that I change the
interrupt vector for IRQ8 (from 0x68 to 0x48) but that didn't solve the
problem.

I have already opened a PR on this: kern/10411.

Thanks for any help you can offer,
Bob
