I would bet ale is the only device linked to this specific PCI bridge. A way to solve this would be jhb's multipass mechanism to be completed with resources discovering&allocation mechanism. Shortly: I don't expect this fixed in the near term. Thanks, Attilio -- Peace can only be achieved by understanding - A. EinsteinReceived on Thu Nov 19 2009 - 23:00:57 UTC
