Hi,

I am using a 2.4.20 Linux kernel with an Intel SDS2
motherboard. By default, USB doesn't function as is shown
by this /proc/interrupts

Booting with the noapic option does fix this and only gives
16 IRQs so many devices wind up sharing. The other thing I
tried was the ACPI patch at www.sf.net/projects/acpi and
that also fixed the problem with the APIC enabled.
