trying to get my machine into productive use with LinuxBIOSv2 I just found major issues with the bridge configuration. The primary PCIe cannot generate interrupts, the other PCIe bridges are configured although the slots are empty (the legacy BIOS does not do that), and the non-express PCI slots don't even seem to exist!
There are 2 pci slots. We've managed to enable one of them; the patch is not in the repo yet, but you can find the thread here:
http://www.linuxbios.org/pipermail/linuxbios/2007-September/024688.html
There's a patch there to that enables the pci slot not on the edge of the board.
I will make work of getting that patch committed, and I want to figure out how to enable the other slot too, when I find some time.
Question: is anyone successfully using any of the slots?
I was not aware of PCI-E issues. I am successfully using a PCI-E video card.
Thanks, Ward.
