does booting with pci=nomsi make this go away?

I added the command as shown below and it didn't help....

Comment 4 Dave Jones 2006-05-04 04:10:22 UTC
that's puzzling. I'll look into why that didn't work.

2108, available from http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/FC5/
has this disabled by default. Give that a try ?
