Hrm. Depending on what I enable in the BIOS, I do get similar lines,
but even then my USB controller doesn't work. On the current boot for
example, I have

PCI: Enabling Via external APIC routing
PCI: Via IRQ fixup for 00:07.2, from 9 to 3

and the usb-uhci driver shows up in /proc/interrupts:

           CPU0 CPU1
  0: 384195 341825 IO-APIC-edge timer
  1: 4166 4032 IO-APIC-edge keyboard
  2: 0 0 XT-PIC cascade
  9: 0 0 XT-PIC acpi
 12: 39181 39875 IO-APIC-edge PS/2 Mouse
 14: 5362 5509 IO-APIC-edge ide0
 15: 0 0 IO-APIC-edge ide1
 17: 13441 13344 IO-APIC-level eth0
 18: 284 304 IO-APIC-level es1371
 19: 0 0 IO-APIC-level usb-uhci
NMI: 0 0
LOC: 725968 725967
ERR: 0
MIS: 0

But there are still no interrupts getting from the USB controller to
the CPU. I get the standard

hub.c: port 1 connection change
hub.c: port 1, portstatus 300, change 3, 1.5 Mb/s
hub.c: port 2 connection change
hub.c: port 2, portstatus 101, change 3, 12 Mb/s
usb-uhci.c: v1.251:USB Universal Host Controller Interface driver
hub.c: port 2, portstatus 103, change 0, 12 Mb/s
hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/2, assigned device number 2
usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
usb.c: USB device not accepting new address=2 (error=-110)

and /proc/interrupts continues to show 0 interrupts on line 19.

If I switch back to MPS1.1, the USB controller moves to IRQ 9 (shared
with the acpi controller) but the behavior is the same. If I toggle
"PnP OS" in the BIOS, I see no relevant differences. I've tried turning
off and on just about everything of relevance; no change.

Booting a non-APIC kernel makes it work, of course.

The system is a Tyan Tiger 133A, Via Apollo Pro 133A chipset, SMP,
currently running 2.4.9. Complete dmesg, lspci -vvvvxxxx, and
/proc/interrupts are at

Thanks for any help. Feel free to CC me on replies; I am on the list,
but procmail is a harsh mistress.
