Booting with "noapic" does seem to > avoid the problem with IRQs 17 and 18, and the Firewire audio now works, > but the "nobody cared" error now appears for IRQ 7: A couple of things: Could you also try mainline, with "threadirqs" on the command line and see if it gives you the same issue. It should also tell you if it is a chipset problem or not. Try v3.0, and then v3.2. Could you also apply the below patch to 3.0-rt. Thomas pointed me to the following commits. The patch below is a back port of them. commit 52553ddff commit c75d720f Oh, and remove the noapic from the command line when you do all of this.
