Send message to listproc@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz with one line
"subscribe linux-pci Your Full Name". The archive should be available,
try listproc's help ("help").

I think of adding an option forcing the kernel to re-address all
PCI devices -- it should solve lots of known problems with broken BIOS'es.
Have a nice fortnight
