With IO-APIC everything worked > except the ethernet. My ECS K7VTA3 5.0C is useless with Linux since I can't get ethernet to work with IO-APIC, and without it modprobe usb-uhci just freezes everything. It may be a broken motherboard. I can't believe all 5.0 have so many problems, but... ...I wonder what's so different in Windows XP. As I reported ethernet and USB work together there. *** Just take a look at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D10 and the children bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D71 VIA IOAPIC/ACPI brokeness (wrt USB/ethernet) has been known and reported for a long time (8 months at least since the initial bug reports predate kernel bugzilla). Unfortunately that didn't stop the 2.5 changes to be backported to 2.4, and people hit it every other week now. (and I fear it was even removed from the 2.6 must-fix list after figuring in a few of its versions) Both 2.4 & 2.5 are totally broken with VIA, while 2.4-ac used to work fine last year.
