Ben,

We're looking at the fixes you put in place for the various PCI errors 
and we think this is the solution we need for our system, a GE Fanuc CM6 
PPC board (single 8641), but your patches appear to apply either to 
2.6.24 or 2.6.25, and we have 2.6.23.  Do you know of any similar work 
done on the 2.6.23 release?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,

No, you would have to backport major chunks of the PCI rework I did in
between, along with fixes I did after that. At this stage I would
recommend considering an update to 2.6.27 or 2.6.28.

Cheers,
Ben.

Hehe, and that opens up an entirely different can of worms with our board.

Thanks, however.

Mark
