Additional info:

Comment 1 Julian Blake 2004-11-25 11:30:23 UTC
I see the same problem:

kernel: irq11: nobody cared! (screaming interrupt?)

but in my case it is eth0 (an Intel eepro100 network card) which is
sharing IRQ 11 with the ATI Rage 128 graphics card.  All subsequent
attempts to use the network fail with:

kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

Changing the network driver from e100 to eepro100 does not alter this
behaviour.  The problem occurs a few seconds after logging out from a
GNOME session.

Comment 2 Julian Blake 2004-11-25 11:58:42 UTC
Created attachment 107456 [details]
/var/log/messages showing "irq 11: ... (screaming interrupt?)" twice

Look for "screaming interrupt" and "NETDEV WATCHDOG".  IRQ11 is shared between
eth0 and r128.

Comment 3 Julian Blake 2004-11-25 13:39:23 UTC
Booting with "acpi=off" does not change this behaviour.  I still get

"irq 11: ... (screaming interrupt?)"

after logging out from a GNOME session.  (My computer is so old that
ACPI is off by default.)

Comment 4 Julian Blake 2004-11-25 14:16:28 UTC
The culprit seems to be the dri (direct rendering) module for r128.

After commenting out the line:

        Load  "dri"

in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, I no longer get IRQ 11 screaming interrupt after 
logging out from a GNOME session.

Comment 5 Julian Blake 2004-11-25 15:53:17 UTC
See bug 138822 which deals with the r128 dri bug.

After installing xorg-x11*-6.8.1-19 packages from Rawhide, I can run 
r128 with dri and the IRQ 11 screaming interrupt problem has gone.

Comment 6 Jason 2005-01-02 03:28:48 UTC
I have a new twist on the kernel disabling irq 11 for you...

when trying to install FC3 on any system with a Silicon Image 3112
SATA controller the install process gets only to the Initialising SCSI
controllers (sii3112 driver) and then comes up disabling IRQ11 and
goes absolutely no further unless you can fully disable in hardware
the SATA controller which is of absolutely no use to anyone trying to
install to a SATA drive.  This is present in any of the kernel's
currently shipped with and available for FC3.

Comment 7 Alan Cox 2005-01-02 15:45:23 UTC
That would make sense. In the reports #1 .. #5 the R128 DRI has been
unloaded and then the IRQ has arrived indicating it was an X bug.

Other Jason (#6)  - the bug you report appears unrelated so can you
file a  seperate report for it. (The fact both involve IRQ 11 is chance).

Thanks
