[[ Rostislav sent me dmesg off line ]] Interesting. You have no ACPI, so you are using only PNP and PNPBIOS to enumerate your devices. The 'hints' device is selected in preference to the PNPBIOS device, which is backwards (the PNPBIOS devices should take precidence). This is why you are seeing what you are seeing. I think this is a bug, but need to consult with some folks to make sure. It works because ISA devices are always mapped and we're talking to the right registers. We're not allocating them, so there's a small chance for collision with the more dynamic parts of the system. Since you aren't doing dynamic things, you aren't colliding so things work. Warner
