The lspci is exactly as it was output. The dmesg is shortened only
slightly. The kernel is the latest available for openSUSE 10.3. No MSI
because this is an Athlon XP (read: 32bit, single core, regular old
33MHz, 32bit PCI).

The interrupts look *exactly* the same with or without noapic. This
board doesn't have apic as far as I know. It's an ECS K7S5A I think.

Does that help?
