Hi. I recently downgraded my laptop from -current to -stable (it wasn't hard. The big deal was rebuilding the ports that I had added in the meantime). One change in behavior stems from the fact that in -current having PnP OS turned on worked -- the USB controller gets the right IRQ and works. Also, the pccard controller doesn't hang the machine in polled mode like it does normally (undoubtedly this is some sort of BIOS bug). Trouble is, this being a VAIO, USB isn't really something you can do without. But turning PnP OS _off_ makes booting Windows hang and makes the pccard polled mode hang and is a general nuisance to have to do. What are the prospects of getting the PnP OS PCI IRQ routing stuff MFCed so that the USB controllers and pccard polled mode will work with PnP OS on?
