Well, IRQ 18 is taken offline during USB initialization. The IRQ is shared with the SATA controller, so SATA controller doesn't work either. It isn't clear why the IRQ handler is taken offline. It could be the USB controller but can also be the SATA controller. Does not loading usb driver make any difference? -- tejun -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
