hello,
> mm4 pnpbios gives the same numbers, but never says
> PnPBIOS: 15 nodes reported by PnP BIOS; 15 recorded by driver
> instead it says general protection fault
>
> There are three pnpbios patches in -mm:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test9/2.6.0-test9-mm4/broken-out/pnp-fix-1.patch
"With this patch, the PnPBIOS driver will read static resources
initially and then switch to dynamic mode when allocating
resources for specific nodes."
-> this one causes the trouble (general protection fault -> kernel panic) for me... without this patch
my system boots (and recognises pnpbios) fine.
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test9/2.6.0-test9-mm4/broken-out/pnp-fix-2.patch
"this patch provides an option for PnPBIOS calls to be
managed by the PnPBIOS driver exclusively" (no /proc support)
-> cannot be this one, since i enabled /proc support
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test9/2.6.0-test9-mm4/broken-out/pnp-fix-3.patch
-> not pnpbios related (isapnp)
greetings,
frank
