w/ 2.1.115 --

Well I tried enabling just BIOS access for PCI in the kernel, that didn't
work.
Then I tried enabling just direct access for PCI in the kernel, that didn't
work.

Same problem in both cases. "PCI Discovered primary peer bus xx"
And I double checked both times that I was booting the updated kernel.

Originally in the older kernels that worked I had both defined so I
believe the kernel was using the BIOS in that case?

So it seems a change in PCI access broke on my chipset. I have an UMC chipset
on my motherboard, so I'm assuming PCI is implemented in those chips.
Didn't you say you had UMC chips too, or am I confusing that with another
thread I was following? But then why did direct access work for you and
not for me :P

It broke somewhere in the 2.1.11x series, cause I'm using 2.1.108 no problem
and have used 2.1.109 with no problem.
