Hi,
With Coreboot and ACPI the interrupt gets routed to IRQ 0, even though I put 18 in the _PRT table. X loads more quickly, but there are obvious problems with text highlighting.
This is OK, just the PCI line reg is not initialized. Its used only when the routing of PCI is done via 8259. Check http://www.coreboot.org/ACPI_in_coreboot#acpi_fill_madt
There is some pics which explains that.
Sorry to make you continually refer to the same place. I thought I understood...
In none of the three cases can I find the IRQ listed in /proc/interrupts. I would have expected to see it there.
It means that the driver is not using any interrupts Maybe you need to load the "nvidia" proprietary module.
I don't really care that it's not using the interrupt. I was just thinking that might be the problem since the factory BIOS uses IRQ 5 and Coreboot uses 18. If interrupts aren't the problem, I wonder what's causing it to fail.
Thanks, Myles
