Comment 1 Arjan van de Ven 2001-11-07 18:21:42 UTC
Did earlier kernels work ?
Also, can you attach the output of lspci ? 
Did you "upgrade" the bios recently ?

Comment 2 Need Real Name 2001-11-07 19:04:25 UTC
* Earlier kernels exhibit  the same problem

* Machine is a bleeding edge machine. Pentium 1.7 GHz Dual and I think it has the latest BIOS. I will contact compaq in the meanwhile

Comment 3 Need Real Name 2001-11-07 20:15:12 UTC
Just updated the BIOS to the latest(v1.10)  fom compaq website. Problem persists

Comment 4 Bugzilla owner 2004-09-30 15:39:15 UTC
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
