I never actually saw it work until I added the noapic option to the
2.6.11.2 boot. Now I can usually my USB mouse! Of course the downside
to specifying noapic is only one CPU is servicing interrupts on my SMP
system.
It certainly doesn't work under 2.4.28, but I haven't tried specifying
noapic to that kernel. Would that be useful information?

machine. If don't boot with "noapic" I get the following errors:
Did it work OK under previous kernels? If so, which versions?
