i810 I/O APIC (was Sticky IO-APIC problem)
D'oh! Well, I still haven't gotten the APIC to work... after *several* unclean reboots (and repeatedly checking my hex math), I'm back where I started. After tinkering inside the configuration space of the I/O Controller Hub, no change is evident in /proc/interrupts. The next time I start up XFree86, it freezes at a blank screen. No vterm switches, Magic SysRq keys, or three-fingered salutes rescue me from it; the kernel doesn't even sing a verse of "Aiee, Killing My Interrupt Handler Softly". Nothin' + bupkus. Nothing. Well, it's obviously not going to work from user space. 8-( Any thoughts from the gurus out there?
