Are you sure about that? MOTD: what kernel version? 2.6.10 (and probably all) prints such message one time for each "spurious" IRQ, sets a flag for that IRQ, and then doesn't print such message for that IRQ any more (i.e., so that log isn't spammed). Each distinct spurious IRQ should be logged (one time). If you want more, you'll need to patch a source file and rebuild the kernel (attached, for i8259 PIC, not for APIC, since that's what you seem to have). > $ cat /proc/interrupts > CPU0 > 0: 887759057 XT-PIC timer > 1: 3138 XT-PIC i8042 > 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade > 5: 5811 XT-PIC Crystal audio controller > 9: 265081861 XT-PIC ide4, eth1, eth2 > 10: 9087912 XT-PIC ide6, ide7 > 11: 837707 XT-PIC ide2, ide3 > 12: 13854 XT-PIC i8042 > 14: 63373075 XT-PIC eth0 > NMI: 0 > ERR: 20 -- ~Randy
