Well, the ipath driver depends on PCI_MSI, and PCI_MSI depends on
(X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_IO_APIC) || IA64

Oh, that. Right. It's about time I get my whole MSI patch set into
shape for submission here, yes.

So how do you enable the driver?

In a very hackish way right now :-(

And what powerpc platform can you use the device on?

The latest PowerMac's have hardware support for MSI, to name just
one platform.
