2.5.8: ACPI: PCI IRQ remapping goes wrong.
Jos:
Using IO[S]APIC and ACPI_BOOT is broken in 2.5.8 and the acpi-patches acpi-20020404 and acpi-20020419. The ACPI SMP booting code is re-worked, and so this problem should be resolved soon. FYI, acpi-20020419 informs you of this in a nice kernel panic.

My SCSI card didn't work anymore, my NIC was unable to connect and my SB Live! didn't work anymore. I thought 2.5.8 was a huge mess :)
Anyway: ACPI sets up IRQ remapping to IRQs > 15, but all PCI devices claim the old =< 15 IRQ's. My guess is that the ACPI code doesn't update the pci irq data.
If it matters: The system I talk about is a dual PII 333, on an Intel LX chipset. 2.5.6 did boot fine.
